MotoGP

MotoGP at Laguna Seca: I always have a good time shooting out here where your subjects are going very fast. Since I do not have a press pass, I have to shoot from the fences. My favorite spot is Turn 9(Rainey's curve). A nice place to shoot is the Corkscrew where you are standing above the fence line and you are in the shade to stay cool. Turn 6 is similar Turn 9 but the distance is further away. Another spot, I like to shoot but it is difficult is Turn 11. You are in the sun but you get some unique shots as the riders brake hard into the apex.
Riders of both MotoGP and AMA are mixed up but you should be able to tell them apart. Plus, over the years, the riders have changed teams so if you follow MotoGP closely, you should be able to tell which photos are older vs newer.
