Qatar race is this weekend, but events start tomorrow. Single event Video Pass is about $17. Not sure yet if I will watch the race or go riding. I can always watch the race on a rainy day...
Good preview here:

First race went to Lorenzo. Only four crashes out of 20 riders in GP class. Nobody hurt.

Looks like Lorenzo had no trouble adapting to the Michelin tires and the new electronics package.
