Australian races canceled

Well it’s official, both F1 and MotoGP have been called off again down here!

Bugger!

F'ing ridiculous, the irrational paranoia continues in some areas of the world unfortunately.

Call up Baku and see if we can give them another race this year, or make it a double header in Austin.

I hope they take this chance to add a track that hasn’t been used in years like Malaysia even if it’s doubtful due to the spread of the Delta strain causing more shut downs.

Mick Doohan said he's really disappointed that MotoGP has been cancelled two years in a row. Phillip Island really is one of the most beautiful tracks in the world.

Andrea Iannone probably wasn't so fond of the track after this close encounter with a seagull.

It is an awesome track to ride on, I can vouch for that

Seagulls are a bit of an issue there thats for sure. I can recall Troy Corser having his screen smashed by one and here's another

There was some talk of a 2nd race in Austin when Singapore was canceled. I could see it happening now.

I miss having more MotoGP races here in the USA, especially Laguna Seca. The Indianapolis track was kind of meh, using the front straight and then going into guy infield. It was so flat it reminded me of a kart track.
