P1racenews AI automatic summary:
An unusual reason is thought to be behind the “logistics issue” hold-up that affected the opening day of MotoGP action in India.
“The opening day of track action for the Indian Grand Prix has been delayed by 45 minutes due to a logistical issue related to a shortage of track marshals. The delay was caused by corner workers refusing to continue working without drinking water. The delay occurred before the start of Moto3’s second session, which was initially delayed due to track conditions. The green flag was eventually waved at 1400, creating a 45-minute delay for the rest of the sessions. The delay was not due to any issue with the Buddh circuit itself, but rather the refusal of track workers to continue working in hot conditions without drinking water. There was speculation about a riders’ meeting causing the delay, and the series had faced other logistical problems, including last-minute visas and flight rebookings for teams.”
