Practice was stopped at approximately 9:30 a.m. local time Friday at Laguna Seca Raceway in Monterey, California due to fog.

AMA Superstock riders had just started a practice session when the fog rolled in and reduced visibility enough for officials to red flag the session.

AMA Supersport and 250cc Grand Prix racers had already completed practice sessions earlier Friday morning.

How the delay will affect Friday’s schedule is yet to be determined.

Friday’s schedule at Laguna Seca calls for practice for AMA Superstock, 250cc Grand Prix and Superbike; qualifying for AMA Superstock; the AMA Supersport race; and World Superbike practice and qualifying.


Update: World Superbikes rolled out onto the track at about 11:00 a.m., after the fog burned off.
