MotoGP Riders Furious with Race Control as Unreal Lap Times Set in Hectic British GP Qualifying

MotoGP riders express frustration with race directors for not stopping practice and qualifying sessions at the British Grand Prix despite standing water and crash debris on the track. Nine riders crashed during the sessions, with some stating that the conditions were borderline dangerous. Riders criticized the lack of red flags and expressed concerns about aquaplaning and poor visibility. One rider visited the control tower and criticized the "show must go on" attitude.
