The strong wind persists in not calming down in Phillip Island, which forced the cancellation of the MotoGP Australian GP sprint race. The start was scheduled for 03:00 (Portugal Continental time).
Despite the rain also being felt, what put safety at risk the most was the intensity of the wind, which would only worsen according to the weather forecasts.
The Moto2 race had already been interrupted and canceled 14 laps from the end, and since then, the conditions worsened. It is worth noting that the main race was moved to yesterday to anticipate the possibility of having to cancel it due to the strong wind and rain forecasted for today.
