    Buffalo Chip TT Thoughts

    This is getting daft. Sunday's race was delayed nearly two hours because of rain, so the first singles practice started at 11pm UK time. I saw the new schedule, watched singles Qualifying 1 (Q1), then set my alarm for 1am and slept for a bit. I woke, watched the singles heats, then set the alarm for 3am and watched the semis and mains. It all finished, for me, after 4.30.

He obviously has a damaged helmet, but the AFT/AMA official looks to be helping him make the restart. This happens numerous times during the night, and occurs at every AFT race, but

    Superprestigio 2018 Cancelled

    Europe's biggest flat track race has been cancelled with less than six weeks until the event. An official press release explained that the organisers hadn't had enough confirmations from the high profile 'charismatic' MotoGP riders they felt they needed to make the event viable and 'respect their racing fans'. This is despite it being a Dorna-backed event, the company that runs MotoGP and owns all its rights. The lack of bankable talent would also have a massive impact on tic
