I recall that they have HUGE blowers there that are used to dry off the track, and I think they were used extensively in 2008 during the hurricane. Time wise it would not be a problem to blow off the infield.
You might be right. I was at opposite end of the track when the announcer said red flag was due to a piece of fairing... Then again, announcer also just announced the Red Bull parachute would be arriving soon - 5 minutes after they landed.
Ben must've seen me wearing my clear Oakley Holbrook's at Indy last year and thought they'd be good luck for him this year. Spies for the win!
interesting question. if pedrosa gets past ben, does Yamaha slow Ben down to let Lorenzo recoup points?
