At the Las Termas de Rio Hondo circuit (?) in 2013. They are also adding a 3rd race in the US at Austin that year too, so Im guessing they are going to have to drop one of the European rounds to accomodate them

Probably not seeing as most of MotoGPs revenue stream comes from Spain (and Japan)

The problem is, despite record ticket sales each year with 200.000 spectators, they still make a huge loss.

Heavy rain and 45mph winds predicted for tomorrow. Could make things interesting

This is one of the best races I have seen in a long time with the Moto2. Action non stop.

First 16 laps were some of the best racing I've seen this year. Shame it's spread out now but was incredible until then.

Still great to the end, the battle for 5th onwards was intense. Pity it was not shown more.

Marquez is such an incredible talent - 125cc champion, on his way potentially to the Moto2 championship. And he's only 18!

Didn't watch the pre-race, why did Rossi start from pitlane?
