Day Race this Friday

[IanUAE]

This Friday is the 2nd race day of the season, this time at the Dubai Autodrome. On the bill are the motorbikes (22) and the FGR 1000 (7). I will be there running the championship winning Triumph as we attempt to defend our title.

I / we should be easy to spot as should have some banners / sponsors stands around the bike which will have the number 1 on it.

Do you have any idea on the schedule for Friday?

I should know the schedule otherwise my rider will be in trouble...

Bikes:
Warm-up 9:30-9:40
Qualifying: 9:45-10:00
Race 1: 11:20
Race 2: 15:45

Formula Gulf:

Race 1: 13:00

The eagle eyed amongst you will have spotted the bikes and the cars are qualifying at the same time...

That cannot be right. Is the DA on crack?

I think have been for years......

Oh and whose bright idea was it to have both a car and bike track day on the same day as a race day. Talk about trying to make money.

Why not, the RTA allow it every day

Had a very trying morning at the circuit as they believe you can fit 22 race bikes with power cables for tyre warmers, tables, chairs and prople into 1 garage.

Lets just say we are in garage 2a and not garage 1 as we "should" be.

Not the best day we ever had, crashed out of the lead on lap 2 in race 1 which was redeemed by a 2nd place finish in race 2. Still we have raised the bar in terms of team presentation:

Ah, so this was you.

That is the rider, I am found working on the bike....
