    And the rain in Spain falls mainly on Valencia.

    At least the safety car kept everyone entertained.
    The best way to forget all your troubles is to wear tight underpants.

    Interesting comment from Mat Oxley overnight. He said that Lorenzo went out in the wet with steel brakes, came in and changed to "carbon-carbon". I read that to mean carbon front and rear. He then wrote a comment to the effect, times have changed.

    Something to do with the brakes must have changed because the carbon brakes run glowing hot and they aren't going to get like that with the amount of water that was lying around in Valencia.

    Hard to imagine that covering them would do much in that weather, but something seems to be working.

    Simon Crafar posted this, a rather worried looking Zarco. What's French for, what about a fucking red flag?

    Even so with that much water around... Anyhoo, Alex Briggs has just reported that the weather is much improved this morning. (His time.)

    It ain’t over ‘til the fat lady sings - and it’s wet again. If it’s still wet for the race it could be anybody’s.

    I’ll watch it tomorrow.

    I didn't bother pritch,fast forwarded all three classes and switched it off.
    Can't be bothered with the wet.
    But hey, Rossi looked great for a while. Roll on 2019 for me
