2009 GP DATES - PROVISIONAL CALENDAR

April 12, 2009: .qt
- Qatar / Losail (Evening race)
Find hotels in Doha, Qatar
Pole Position: casey Stoner, Ducati. Race postponed to Monday because of torrential desert rain storm in Qatar. For US viewers Speed, I think, will screen the rescheduled race at 4pm EST Tuesday April 14, 2009 - which is when they'd have screened the repeat. I looked on their site, as advised on the telecast, but couldn't find one mention of the rescheduling television time. You'd think "THE AUTHORITY" (sic) might be a little more helpful concerning the most popular motorsport series in the world. I was appalled that the "cut and paste" story about the storm had not one mention in it of the amended screening time. If you know better about the air time, in any part of the world, or are lucky enough to see it live and have results, please email me.
Rescheduled Qatar MotorGP Results: Winner Casey Stoner, Ducati; 2: Valentino Rossi (Yamaha) ; 3 Jorge Lorenzo (Yamaha Fiat Team)
