Running on Fumes

For the casual racing fan, the nuances of the MotoGP rules and regulations can mystify. Now readers can get an inside line on the GP scene thanks to the good folks at Honda (you meet the nicest people on a Honda…).

The Behind the Scenes page on the worldwide Honda site is an informative read for MotoGP racing fans, both casual and hardcore. A series of feature stories tackle different subjects related to the MotoGP paddock.

So far Honda’s covered Tires, explaining the new spec tire rule, what compounds are available, how many tires a rider gets, etc. Volume 2 is a nifty outline of the schedule during a typical race week – when do teams arrive, tech inspections, promotional obligations… There’s a lot of bases covered and pretty informative stuff.

Well, worth the time to check it out. Visit:
