May be the most exciting race of the year. Holy cow. Stayed up till 2 am watching it. I think they are going to replay it at 11 this morning, I'm going to watch it again!

Was looking for you guys in the crowd, but never spotted you.

RE: Australian MotoGP *** Spoiler Alert ***
I've been to Phillip Island and stopped at the race track just to see it. The gates were closed so we had to watch from outside.
As far as I could tell it was only locals doing practice laps as it was the wrong time of year for Moto GP. Even so, they were ripping up the asphalt.
The sight and sound of those screaming engines was pretty cool and I'm glad I at least got to se the track in person after seeing it on TV so many times.

Still rockin', rollin', and ridin' after all these years

Ferret said it: Probably the most exciting race of the year - in all three classes. Almost the best possible outcome for team Honda and Marc. Also good to see KTM do so well in Moto2. They will be a force to be reckoned with in future years - in all classes. Fun to see Mir clinch Moto3 as well in an exciting race. Moto3 has had some of the most tense racing this year.

noroomtomove, Woodside was open, but we decided to test your fuel remaining calculation and pressed on to Yarram.

It was an extraordinary afternoon at Phillip Island. Mir rode brilliantly in Moto3. At one stage he fell back to 9th but not for long. It’s a pity rain stopped the race early. Us locals were happy to see Miler leading the race for a bit. He must have been happy with the result and the fact that he stayed up in the top pack all afternoon. Dovizioso was nowhere to be seen which was strange given his recent form. Marquez was superb, but he kept us biting our nails.

I'd say, it's an animation of a computer game?
