A Dog Is Running Around COTA And It Just Red-Flagged MotoGP Practice
A Dog Is Running Around COTA And It Just Red-Flagged MotoGP Practice-February 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:11:43

Usually loose livestock is more of a problem in Texas, but out at Circuit of the Americas they're dealing with an animal nuisance of the smaller, cuter variety.

MotoGP's first final practice has been red-flagged due to the presence of a dog running around the track. They still haven't caught the little stinker.

Looks like this practice has already gone to the dogs! (Get it?)

The dog has been caught and Free Practice 1 was allowed to continue. Thankfully, no canines were harmed in the running of this practice session.

Hat tip to McNewbie!
