Monitors displaying AMA timing & scoring information along pit lane and in the press room at Sears Point first went live at 11:40 a.m. PDT, more than three hours after official AMA practice started.

Problems with the timing and scoring system at the opening of official AMA practice have been the norm this year, with the system failing to be fully operational at Daytona, Fontana and now Sears Point.
