Le Mans MotoGP Sunday Subscriber Notes: All Hail The New Rulers Of MotoGP From the start of the weekend, we were waiting for the rain to fall at the French Grand Prix at Le Mans. Thursday and Friday were gorgeous. Saturday started a little cooler, but soon warmed up. MotoGP warm up was dry, but not long after it finished, the rain started. The 112,000 fans who had turned up on Sunday were undeterred, screaming with enthusiasm as they do at Le Mans, rain or shine. The 21 MotoGP riders being shepherded onto the fan parade trailer were a lot less happy about being dragged around the circuit in the wet. "To be honest, the only thing that I think is too much is that that we had to make the lap in the trailer in the heavy rain that we had this morning," a disgruntled Pedro Acosta said after the race. "I think this is too much, and I think that we have to start to put limits, because this doesn't make sense to make us to be under water for 35 minutes."
