MotoGP star thinks rain was “sign” Phillip Island “is crying for us not to leave”

Raul Fernandez views the severe weather that forced the cancellation of the Australian Grand Prix as a symbolic plea from the venue against the championship's upcoming departure to Adelaide. Because dangerous conditions grounded the necessary medical helicopter, the Trackhouse Aprilia competitor maintains his recent victory as the final triumph at the historic circuit.

Beyond the weather stoppage, the rider had already decided to step away from competition due to a finger injury sustained earlier in Indonesia, which prevented him from handling the rapid direction changes required by the circuit layout.
