Instead of spending all my time in the infield taking pics of the bikes, i took some time in the pits to capture a bit of the atmosphere around there.

here are a few of my favorites.

I particularly like the sixth image... showing either six laps to go or in sixth place.

I believe he was gesturing 6 laps to go. the riders are often quite concerned about how much racing is left so they can monitor available traction and not ride there tires off.

Some great shots there - whenever I go to a motorsport event I always aim to get a couple of hours just taking photos in the pits/paddock area as these can tell just as much of a story as the racing shots can
