Moto GP seems boring after TT

I'm still watching it now but does anyone else feel it's a bit dull after the excellent TT racing ?

Does seem to be more sedate now you come to mention it

Moto 2 is still exciting though.Premier class is dying just now through lack of numbers and too much cost.

You don't always get the sense of speed on the track that you did with the TT coverage. I must confess I was just waiting to see who fell off today. Rain usually ruins races. I nearly dropped off myself.

Simoncelli is always worth watching for one reason or another.

The crashes in the wet were defo the only highlights tbh, I still would like to attend a GP race though at some point.

The numbers are so disappointing. 15 starters so you just have to finish to get in the points (obv not that easy today given the good british weather). Something needs to change imo. Hope the re-birth of the 1000cc's will change things but I doubt it. World Supers was much more interesting.

Ive just got back from Silverstone. Have to agree when watching on the tv its getting a bit F1 ish! But had an awesome day today. Was an early fathers dat present from Jack. I only found out I was going at 5am this morning. Bradley Smith was phenomenal. Well pleased for Edwards too. I thought my Sv1000 was loud but the Moto GP bikes are something else. Not so keen on the ride home though, I thought it was meant to be summer? Not been that cold and wet for a long time. The sun was out when I left home. Took 40 minutes to get out if the car park on a bike, god knows how long the cars were stuck for.

Closed circuit racing and road racing are so different that for me they cannot be compared. Each has it's own plus's and minus's. For out and out cojones,the road race boys get my vote every time.

+1

I've just got back too, and yep I think the rain dulled the racing somewhat.

Best / closest / most exciting race I saw all weekend I reckon was the Triumph Triple Challenge on saturday evening, there were only a handful of us left in the grandstand because most folk had gone to gawp at the motoGP riders waffling on a big stage...
