hahahaha Just a good guess based on experience man. PI track temp changes radically very fast and Rossi had stuck with the original front tyre all weekend ( I assume he did this due to what I just said about track temp there) and I had checked on a weather report before posting that. I will check my lotto tickets tomorrow though, maybe I am on a roll hahaha

Massive bummer for Cal Crutchlow, will be fin cool to see him on the Honda next year

Miller rode a good one - the Hondas were faster but Jack played it well and squeaked home a length ahead.

20/20 foresight.

And after seeing that Moto3 race is there still anybody who doubts that young Mr Miller is a real talent?

All in all it was a bad weekend for the nay sayers, even Bradders stuck one up them.

Awesome someone got a snap of the tyre. I saw they had thrown a blue jacket or something over it in parcferme but couldn't find any footage of it uncovered.

Guess it was just his turn. Rossi, Crutchlow, Barbera, and probably others have already had a race spoiled by a faulty tyre this year.

According to the commentators all the victims of the front end tuck were on the harder compound and the temperature drop caught them out. Bad luck for Crutchlow 'cause he was going well. Sorry, but I can't agree that a rider in a podium position on the final laps of that race wasn't there on merit. CC and Smith had qualified third and fourth on the grid so they had been on the pace consistently.

Phillip Island isn't just another Tilke kart track, it reputedly requires balls as well as brains and the guys at the sharp end of all three races musta had both.

JL has had at least one other race this season maybe two that his tyres really let hinm down,VR once too i think

Justice was in fact swift.
Nine Moto3 riders were given one penalty point each (four points in a season and you're starting from the dummy grid).
