Do you agree with Moto-PG Podcast as to why PI lost the MotoGP?
The proposed Adelaide street circuit idea is “interesting” but unlike IOM or Ireland, our Safetycrats don’t have any appetite for closed street circuit motorcycle racing and its inherent risks.
What’s your prediction about how this is going to play out?
We f**ken told you, bro. We warned you all.
At the last Australian round of the world's greatest sport, we told you all that PI was looking to lose the MotoGP.
Many did not believe it. Then mainstream idiot media picked up on it and suddenly they were reporting rumours of news we had broken.
Rumours became fact and yes, PI has lost the MotoGP.
To Adelaide. We told you that too, a week before it happened.
Carlos Ezpeleta is flying to Adelaide today, so expect an announcement soon. And no, it will not be at Tailem Bend.
It will be in Adelaide. Yes, a street circuit.
Do you know why PI lost the MotoGP? Of course, you do. The Australian GP Corporation and the Bass Strait Council also know why.
In all the years they have had the rights to host the event, they have done f**k nothing to improve the facilities for the riders. The track is great. No issue. One of the best in the world. But everything around it is s**t.
Never mind the woeful crap the punters have to put up with. Consider what international race teams have to put up with out the back in the paddock. Garbage toilet facilities forcing riders to wee in bottles in their ports-cabins. Tiny pit garages. A pit lane that is too narrow. The list is long and shameful.
PI deserves to lose the race. It did f**k nothing to hang onto it.
Why? Because the Victorian State government does not give a s**t about motorcycle racing. It never has.
The crowds are down year on year. Last race, there were more people at a Melbourne footy game than came to the island to watch the MotoGP.
Shall speak about the price-gouging that goes on for stall-holders at the garbage Expo, to the appalling overpriced food and the beer you're served in plastic cups while a security gronk stands over you as you drink it? The mud? The s**tty toilets? The lack of a permanent grandstand?
Let's not.
But know the amount of money pi**ed up against the wall building those temporary grandstands could have seen five permanent ones built. But let's just blame Lindsay Fox, who wanted to do so much (it's his track, after all), but was prevented by the local Bass council - which resembles a clown-car rather than a council.
It is the perfect partner for the Australian GP Corporation - which remains clueless about how to run and manage an international event.
It deploys hundreds of cops to torment punters who ride to the event. It employes hundreds of idiot crowd managers who are rude, clueless, and officious. It employs hundreds of Australian GP Corp staff (the ones in the red jackets) to do...well, basically f**k-all except walk around in groups taking selfies. They struggle to know which flag goes on which pole and which way up it is. They could not manage to play the French National Anthem when Zarco won.
We know this because we have seen it first-hand.
Recall the Australian GP Corp somehow manages to lose $40 million hosting the F1 last year. How it thinks it can make money and host a MotoGP event is a mystery.
This year will be the Island's last hurrah. Our condolences to all the business that will take a massive economic hit, and no condolences at all to the price-gouging robber-barons who use the MotoGP to destroy our wallets, and made going to Malaysia or Thailand a better deal for Australian fans.
Enjoy the bag of dicks you so deserve to eat.
