While not being so crude as the Courtney fella being of high moral character, I to am a bit mistified as to what this new magical quality practice time is which has been achieved by reducing the practice laps available.

Practice is not only about setting up machinery it is also about the adjustment of rider fitness and getting fit for along hard and physically demanding race on a course that that is not matched anywhere in the world in distance or dificulty for battering the human body and brain.

There cannot possibly be any substitute for the maximum number of lap to get racing fit on that circuit I would derly love to know how half a dozen quality laps could possibly be better than 20 to 30 laps.

Never done the 30 laps mentioned but certainly done 27
