As usual a very good report from Matt Oxley, the area that scares me the most watching Moto3, 2 and GP is the Moto3 qualifying, somebody is going to get badly hurt unless they change the way they organise it. Everybody looking for a tow while some on a fast lap with no margin for error, it is only a matter of time before the fast guy runs into the back of a dawdler or a bunch of them. I think they should have a system where they are released on track at say 20 second intervals and they have 3 laps to post a time. This would avoid the tow mentality but it would be difficult to manage time wise and if track conditions were changeable over the session
