Never been to a GP race. Are the bikes louder than the BSB/WSBK bikes? Would love to go to Mugello or Catalunya.

I did catalunya last year it was amazing. Manage to get on the grid to!!

The bikes are loud and so fast. They go around corners faster than i go in a straight line.

Me neither. World superbike but in 1980!!!! Watching Randy Mamola win at Brands :lol: How old am I.
I fancy Czech (Brno) next year. Great spectator track (if dry), probably reasonable price too. Wish I'd seen Cal do it there last race :clap:

Not sure if Silverstone would be the best place to watch MotoGP as you're so far from the track. Phillip Island was great, some places were only a couple of metres from the bikes. I had to wear earplugs!

Well I'm still at home and not at Silverstone, :( it's my own fault, was rushing yesterday to get mums wheelchair out if the boot and it was lashing it down, wet hands it slipped, I caught it before it hit the bumper and ouch my fooking back has gone again........ Not impressed .... Worst things happen at sea, and then to top it off when I got home my V5C had arrived but yes..... It's wrong :roll:

Duncan you can actually get right close to the track at places at Silverstone, that's why I love Luffield either standing or grandstand :D

Good race and everyone seemed happy afterwards. Looks like Marquez forgot that he was meant to be racing for the championship, which certainly increased the entertainment level.
