This year we had 60 newcomers and some struggled to qualify for one reason or the other, mainly lack of practice time..

Classic meetings in Europe are now big events and attract large paying crowds and is enjoyed by all. We had a few occasions at this years MGP where classic bikes created faults and dumped oil all over the track which in tern takes time to clean up, they don't have catch trays in the fairings like the modern bikes have to have. So maybe the practices for the classic should be put back to the last session of practice in future. I may be wrong but I will quote what a Traveling marshals stated as a reason that a practice session was ended was due to the amount of classic bikes that had broke down and were still on the track creating a safety issue.

George you are wrong classic bikes do have catch trays.

Am I, I dont think so >>>>>>
