It’s the middle of summer in England, so we got very wet yesterday. But once again, being ready for the rain made all the difference. It’s worse for the teams as setting up the bikes is harder, and of course in the wet, anything can happen as far as race results. But it’s sunny this morning and it looks like we’ll at least have a dry morning session.
It’s a bit melancholy here as MotoGP bids farewell to Donington Park. There has been a fair bit of GP history at this track, and most of the riders expressed regret at this being the last year here before moving to Silverstone in 2010. But what goes around comes around, and there’s no telling what the future brings. We’re here this weekend, with a great battle shaping up between Rossi and Lorenzo, and if it rains tomorrow, who knows who else might join the battle. I wouldn’t trade being here for the world.
