We got to Losail at half 10, and despite the lightening flashes that still punctuated the sky it seemed like the rain had passed by and all was set for the main event, the MotoGP race.
The bikes were all on the starting grid ready to race;
but then with only 2 minutes left before the scheduled start time of 11pm it started spitting with rain. And before long the light shower became a torrential down pour;
The crowd hung around, hoping that the rain would pass and the race would be able to start after the track dried out, but it wasn't to be and around half 11 they announced that the race wasn't going to take place.
It's been rescheduled for 9pm tonight, but unfortunately we have prior plans so wont be able make it.
Damn the rain!!!
