    Meanwhile in Qatar, Eugene Laverty records the fastest time ahead of Rea on day one. It's almost as if the man has a point to prove?

    And one more to go... Without wanting to be a spoiler, the last few laps had some good battles just behind the lead chaps. I missed the first 15 laps and probably missed the greatest 10 rider battle in WSBK history. Or not......

    You will need bloody good eyesight to watch leg 2.

    So the year ends with a whimper rather than a bang - sums up the WSBK season really. As usual, the 600 support race delivered the action.

    I think the only fair thing to do next year is to is for Rea to start each race on a bike chosen at random.



    PS: Am I going mad? I am sure there was a new post from Roogazza here....

    yeah I did post dad, but then I read the race was cancelled and deleted it. I thought I had cocked up the copying of the race !!!! Oh well , GPs at 2.45pm today ,that'll make up for it.

    If it weren't for flashbacks...I'd have no memory at all..

    One of the pundits suggested that the only reason there was any action at all on the day was that Dorna wanted the SSP series decided on the track.

    WSBK are offering the 1 euro package this weekend. It runs until Feb 19.

    Any takers - or do we reckon it is not worth it?

    Does it still have 7 day down time due to Sky having broadcast rights?

    The mainstream press in Britain is as disinterested in motorcycling as their counterparts in NZ, so it's nice to see this in The Guardian.

    HRC experimenting with swing arm flex?

    Explanatory note: I posted this in the GP thread then looked and the paint job and thought, oooops!
    So I deleted that and posted it here, then noticed the pipes but thought fuck it!
