Yes, I skip Sepang for that reason, heat and wet. For that matter, I avoid Philip Is for similar reasons, wind and cold.
What about that young Malaysian fella in Moto2, so confident there for a while. Looked like he was riding in the dry.
West rode the best I've seen him also.
Only to the point where Chilli went into the corner in the leed and him and Aaron were on different lines and to the point that Aarons line had him drive into Chilli causing the crash ( Not intentionally)
But I guess to much wanking on my behalf has caused me eye site issues

Slight had a nice tight line there and Chili looked like he just didn't expect him to be there. It would be hard to call that Slight's mistake. Its the same as that argument over Jonathon Rea taking out the BMW earlier in the year. If the other guy leaves a gap (such as Chili did) don't be surprised if someone comes inside you.
p.s. shame they reg flagged the MotoGP race before Stoner could pass Lorenzo.

The only reason not to go to Sepang is that you can't watch the racing while eating a bacon buttie, which up until then I thought was compulsory. Shade is rare in the outfield so the honkies pretty much have to go in the main stand, but they have those fans blowing water everywhere and the breeze helps. Rain is rain wherever you go, but getting wet there is a lot more pleasant than at Teretonga when there is a southerly blowing.
One good thing about going is that it is close to the end of the season so you might also see a title decider.
Yes it's just a personal preference.
England purely for the weather is another. Long way to go to stand in the rain. In saying that you can get caught out, but i have been very lucky all the years I go to watch.
End of season races where riders are thinking of points rather than the win also doesn't appeal.
Guess I prefer race wins to championships if you get what I mean ?
It seems Dorna want to spread the gospel to India and Indonesia. Should either, or both, of those come to pass it might pay to create a new "away" cluster at a different time of the year. Three monsoonal meetings would be too much.

I'd say it's fairly likely we'll see more races in that part of the world — heard something different at the races this weekend: the crowd.
But, yes, the scheduling of such races might be better timed weather-wise.
Wow, I felt totally the opposite in terms of whether I would travel to Sepang to watch the gp.
It might have been wet, hot, and crowded, but fuck me if that wasn't a crowd you'd remember being in. The sort of racing on display this gp was something else entirely too. Awesome.
But I have never been to a gp, so I can't really qualify that with experience. Do you reckon, if I'm going to commit to going to one (in the Australasian circuit), is that the kind of gp better appreciated from one's arm chair, with all the delays and all?
