Well i went and it pissed down.
The rider i saw the most of in free practice was a girl (Jenny Tinmouth), about 3 blokes went out the rest stayed in, she must have bigger balls than the blokes.

Qualifying was postponed and then cancelled.
Tricky conditions riding back and my waterproof boots aren't waterproof.  :'(
Still had a smile though. :D

I think the one bike rule that reduces costs for the teams also reduces the entertainment value. If riders had two bikes like before more would be outlasted to go out in wet practice sessions.

I don't buy tickets in advance anymore for weekends because if it's wert tiff attend going to see many out on track in practice.
