Japanese Moto GP twin ring Motegi 2019

[formula400]

i traveled to Japan for work (making scones for the Hankyu british fair in Fukuoka and Osaka) and managed to get a day at the Moto GP.
first time I've had the camera out since Le Mans Moto GP, I've not even got to a BSB round this year. i struggled as i could make my mind up as to use the 1.4 teleconverter or not, it was quite dark so had to up the iso to compensate for my lack of skill. how far can i push the iso on a 5dm3??

any ways i loved it there, everyone in the paddock was so calm and relaxed, no trying to grab the riders
managed to grab a pic with the man him self Cal Crutchlow, the wife also saw him at the airport and said " my husband loves you, can i get a picture" so she just took one of him, he said don't you want to be in it . then at the GP when i asked he said "yes, as i gave your misses one at the airport"
