A bit of a disappointing weekend at Silverstone for those attending the Motogp as weather cancelled race day (Understandably)

Took the new Canon 100-400mm mkii with me as I have hurt my back and didn't feel that I could carry the 300mm 2.8 for the duration, looking a bit softer here than they do on my screen for some reason.

Cracking set, the Marquez shot is top drawer (they all are), just a shame he didn't have a clear visor. I'm guessing it was dry for that shot?

The Lorenzo shot is just wow, great to see his face. They look sharp enough to me.
 
Thanks Dale, I did manage to get several clear visor shots on the Saturday but I haven’t got that far through my memory card yet.
 
Great shots.
Do you pre-focus or rely on servo-AF?
 
Servo AF more often than not, with the 300mm 2.8 it tracks amazing, I have to say I was very impressed with the 100-400mkii, considerably better than the mki version.

Oh dear - More expense!
