blue03636 Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 That place always has sand on it in the first practice, most of the guys end up going slower because of this. Not trying to take anything away fro espargaro as he has been riding the wheels off of that thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redkow97 Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 Guess we'll see. Soft tires won't last race distance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redkow97 Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 That place always has sand on it in the first practice, most of the guys end up going slower because of this. Not trying to take anything away fro espargaro as he has been riding the wheels off of that thing. Just saw on RRW.com, Espargaro nearly equaled the circuit record. If he's doing that on sand, today should be even more impressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

owndjoo Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 everyone seems to have made an improvement. Aleix is just on another level right now... 54's and consistenly lapping at loooow 55's. As long as the tires can last the distance... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

e-flores Posted March 26, 2014 Report Share Posted March 26, 2014 I hook my computer up directly to my tv with an av cable works great. And I watch on my phone as well. They do a great job with their video subscription. Now I wish F1 would do the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
