Race officials suspended action during MotoGP FP2 Friday at Phillip Island due to too much standing water on the track. Track conditions were re-evaluated later in the day to see if practice could resume, but officials decided track conditions were too poor to continue and canceled the remainder of the day’s on-track activities.
