Rain Forces Cancellation Of Opening Practice For Australian MotoGP
Opening practice for the Australian MotoGP was cancelled Friday because of persistent heavy rain, denying the riders a crucial session on the newly resurfaced Phillip Island circuit. Organisers made the decision almost two hours after it had been due to start with too much water on the track. With four race weekends left, the championship is finely poised with Spanish Pramac star Jorge Martin just 10 points ahead of Italy's Ducati defending champion Francesco Bagnaia.
