The reason was an early round of the Supersport in 2012, I think a lad dropped a Triumph, mkght have been Pekkanen, he dropped it, picked it up again and remounted, he didnt know the cases had split, so the thing was spewing oil everywhere.

Loads of people crashed and a few were badly hurt, so they made the decision. It does make sense, especially in the UK where it rains more and is therefore much harder to clear up, I think there were huge delays as a result f this, hours as it covered the whole track and the riders said no way are we riding.

Makes sense (as usual for Brits) lol
