Only had access to one decent-ish spot, so most shots ended up about the same, but it took me ~15 mins to start nailing bikes. Don't know why some people even ask, "how do you shoot X," in our instant preview era :rolleyes:

OK. Nice.

Why were you Limited. I've been to F-1 races and was allowed to move around the track.
And F-1 is very strict. About people going in certain places.

Having worked at a motorcycle race track as a corner worker (flagman), I used to take my camera with me and shoot the bikes as they went past my station. I have literally hundreds of action shots of bikes, so I can appreciate the shots you posted here. Nice work, bud. :)

Thanks guys! They didn't allow anyone not authorized past the outer fence and the ONLY spot I could shoot above it and near a corner were 2 sets of bleachers. This way I could pan for straight shots and get that corner as well clean. Next time I'm either looking into covering some team to get inside/marshal booths or a nice tall ladder to just perch above the fencing anywhere I want.
