The safety car has now been running for 25 minutes on the Chang track in Thailand to determine whether the riders in the Moto3 category will be able to set off in optimal safety conditions.
For the moment, the drivers are lined up in rows in the boxes, scanning the sky and waiting for the green light from race management to get on their machines and put on a show.
It's qualifying day in Buriram! 🙌
