the common mistake in winter riding is trying to make a top chrono at 3°C.
Even the 5 lap warm up was not sufficient to have tires at the right temperature.

I blocked the front wheel just before starting my first fast lap. hopefully, rider in front was far enough not to get in the bike trajectorie, 200kg at 180km/h.... it would have been pretty ugly :(

Best thing is you're okay! I was expecting the bike to go down going into or exiting the turn.

indeed, I wasn't expecting a front slide at the begining of the braking zone neither. especially with dry condition. maybe I wasn't as straight than I thought.

it's the second time this kind of thing happen to me. unfortunatly for me, the first time my FZ6 went into the grass, makes lot of tumbling and brake it's frame.
