If these guys start streaming LITPro Data and heart rates on the television broadcasts, that is one more layer of information the teams could use mid moto. My example below is in the context of an outdoor moto.
Example: Some riders like to drop the hammer at the 20 minute mark because they are confident in their fitness. They couple that with their perception of other riders not being as fit. This seems to work quite a bit but the decisions are based on perception. Be it their perception of themselves or their competitor, there is no hard data to support it. With this data being public and broadcast live, the teams and riders would truly know if someone is hitting the wall. Pit boards would have actual information on a competitors state of fatigue or intensity. This wouldn't be immediately useful because of the fact that everyone is different; e.g., max heart rate, standard mid-moto heart rate etc... But over time, with trend analysis, it would be very useful.
