MotoGP – Indianapolis This Coming Weekend

 In MotoGP


Right, well no sooner have we got over the excitement of the Misano race (my heart is still just slowing down from that one…) and of course the excitement of finally seeing Bati on the ATF podcast, than we find the Indianapolis GP staring us in the face.
Should be an exciting one this; a new circuit for all the riders (apart I suppose from Nicky Hayden, on the technicality of having done a demonstration run to promote the event) – and, unlike Laguna Seca, we have all classes competing.
Don’t forget when looking at the circuit plan above that the race is, unlike the F1 races, being run in an anticlockwise direction with the big left and some squiggly bits coming up first.
We’ll have more detail including Eurosport TV listings (cos we love Eurosport loads, and want you to watch their coverage in preference to any other) over the coming days, and of course all the news, stats and pics we can upload on the weekend itself.
Should be good 🙂
