I just got back today, went on thursday afternoon so was there for the full weekend! What a day yesterday was, I was sat in the constant rain for about 10hrs!

Some good racing but I must admit, the Moto GP needs a serious shake up, the past 2 races have been boring to watch. I feel lucky to have been at the race in Jerez which I think has been the best of the year so far!

Silverstone seemed dead from where I was sitting yesterday, not much support and no atmosphere!

On another note, well done Bradley Smith :congrats: :congrats: :congrats:

Fair play to you Matt for braving the conditions.   The lack of atmosphere came across on the telly too but hardly surprising given the pants weather.  I'm guessing you had the weekend planned for a while what with going for 5 days?!  I was really pleased for Colin Edwards making the podium a week after doing his collar bone.  I was shouting at my telly as Bradley Smith crossed the line!

It's been booked since about October last year, do it every year. Did Valencia last year and Jerez so far this year as well and hopefully back to Valencia in November too.

Colin Edwards had a great race, went to a Q+A session with him on Saturday and got my ticket signed by him.
He hinted the reason Pedrosa wasn't back yet but he was is that Pedrosa has had another accident since doing his collarbone which has made it worse, but he wouldn't say how (how much of this is true I don't know, he was talking some crap aswell :signLOL:)

I was shouting at my telly as Bradley Smith crossed the line!

I was jumping up and down with my huge union Jack with 'Smith #38' on it as he came round celebrating after the race, got a wave but don't think I got on tv :signLOL:
