    I guess Chaz is actually testing stuff rather than putting in a laptime?

    There's a very definite divide between those that have raced in WorldSBK before and the newbies.
    Zen wisdom: No matter what happens, somebody will find a way to take it too seriously. - obviously had KB in mind when he came up with that gem

    The Supersport class could be interesting. Apart from the resident stars, this year there are two former riders from the MotoGP undercard in Sandro Cortese and 2008 125 champ Mike DiMeglio.

    Yeah malcy, Sky ain't cheap I suppose at a Hundie odd per month? But the other half has it for other stuff so I stick with it for the mo. Coverage is good tho.
    Little Melandri had his hands full every time on the straightaway with the Doocati waggling the whole way down. He's such a midget,bit like Pedrosa.
    Rea in damage control by the looks,he didn't look happy in qualifying either.

    WTF !!!!!! Pit stops for leg two ???? Don't like that at all.

    Rea should be front row for Race 2, with the handicapping from last year ??? Or has that been dropped ,?

    Well despite the funny tyre stuff that was one seriously close finish. And I would not like to be on that bloody thing Milandri is wrestling around.

    Yes, holding them all in Pitlane for what was it, 63 seconds ? Kept them tight.
    You wouldn't think Melandris weight alone made for the wobbles, maybe a little bit of set up as well ?
    I didn't notice the other Doocatis on the main straight doin that ?

    Look forward to Round 2 !

    I watched it live and only nodded off once. Does that mean it was an interesting race, or am I not as old and knackered as I thought?

    Roll on the support races - I never fall asleep during them...

    We'll see what effect the handicapping does in the second leg tonight Dadpole ? Not a fan of that myself. I look forward to the WSS race as well, I saw somewhere Sofoglue might retire ? Can't remember where ?

    (then I might put it all into practice tomoro up your way ??/ heh heh ).

    The WSS race was the usual good stuff. Without dropping any spoilers, may I say that the winners girlfriend looked enthusiastic and a bit of fun indeed (In a scary sort of way).
