So ... anyone see the racing on the weekend? Apart from the Ten Kate Hondas eating their own rear tyres in race 1 and Roberto Rolfo smashing the #$% out of his bike (with his bare hands :shutup:) when it broke down on the final lap - it was a pretty tame affair.

Well done Nitro Norri on the R1 - total, total domination as he took the first double of the season. He's not too shabby for an old fella <_<, snappy dresser too. How old is he anyway? Nice lean angle. :yes:

Massive, sickening highside by Robbin Harms on the Honda in the supersport class as he exited Lesmo wide and ran onto the curbs - bike spat him off and proceeded to munt itself against the armco barrier before Harms followed closely afterwards. Amazingly he shrugged it off and ran off the track under his own steam! He must have been travelling at over 200 km/h when he came off! These boys are made of stern stuff, or is it funny putty? :shit:

I wish i had seen Biaggi's tank slapper. If only he had held that position for second, the Itallian fans didnt seem to care though they still thought he was a god.

...must have been sore after that. His neck took a fair pounding.
