The first ever compulsory dry weather MotoGP pit stops may have spiced up Sunday's Australian Grand Prix, 🥂but the podium finishers rejected the idea that they should be used for every weekend.

The pit stops were introduced as an emergency measu🅰re when Bridgestone suffered tyre overheating 🧜problems on the new Phillip Island surface.

Dunlop face༒d a similar issue in Moto2, with the race distance halved as a result.

MotoGP chose to keep as many laps as possibl🦹e by forcing all riders to pit and swap to their spare bike within ten of the reduced🌌 19 lap distance.

"For me it's not a good option [to have pit stops] without doubt," said Yamaha's race winner Jꦺorge Lorenzo. "Everything is worse and more dange🐻rous than in a normal race.

"When I exited the pits my carbon front brake was too cold, but the most dangerous is in pit lane, because if you are four five seconds in front of another rider wh🧸en you enter ꦫthe pits, then you meet after you change the bike.

"It is very dangerous. A 60kmh imp🅷act can create a big damage. In a wet race it is the rule [to offer a pit stop] but in the dry for me it was not the best op🐬tion."

Runner-up Dani Pedrosa agreed.

"Today was OK because it was an emergency, but there are many things to take into account here," said the Repsol Honda star. "There was the new asphalt which was very grippy꧃ and you have to change ev൲erything in the championship to do a race like this [with pit stops]. I see motorcycle races as being one stint."

Th🌞ird place Valentino Rossi🐼 was the most positive about pit stops in every race, but even he felt a normal format is better.

"For me it can be an option for the future. A longer race with one or two stops," said the Italian. "It is different, more intense. You can go 100% from the beginning t⛦o the end. At the stop you relax for a second, then you go again at 100% again.

"Sincerely I like it, but it is better as 🌌normal. Today was an emergency."

In order to av🐻oid such situations in future, Rossi hopes that tyre tests will be compulsory on an resurfaced ci📖rcuit.

"For me if a circuit has a new surface it should be compulsory to havꦇe a test on the new surface with fast riders," said the seven time M꧅otoGP champion.

"I also think that Bridgestone should improve the harder tyre because it never works for anybody and in all the rac💮es we are forced to use the softer rea𒀰r tyre.

"I hope that Bridgestone make more effort꧋ to give the riders two real options for the race so some can decide for the hard or the soft and have tyres that work."

Title leader Marc Marquez was caugh🎶t out by the ten-lap limit before pitting and was black flagged.
