After Friday’s two practice sessions, MotoGP riders, while praising the layout of the track, predicted that the weekend would be a gruelling one physically.
The nearly 5km-long Buddh International Circuit proved challenging with its long straights and flowing corners as the riders tried to find the ideal racing line.
However, the more significant concern for the riders was the physical toll it would take on them in the hot conditions with the temperatures in the mid-thirties and high humidity.
