So what do we think? BSB Hopefully Hopper but don't know how is luck will hold out - Tommy Hill again after last year can see him cracking under pressure, could be wrong. Thoughts? this is the first year I've really got into BSB. used to be just something I watched when not watching Moto GP. But has been a cracking year
I'll admit to being really conflicted on this one. I want Hopkins or Hill to win so I'll be gutted for whichever one loses. But what a fantastic year of racing we've had. WSB has felt sterile and aloof by comparison. Moto GP has had an inevitability about it, spiced up only by Moto2, in my opinion. Fingers crossed that Sunday lives up to the build up and in the spirit of the moment I even wish Brookes a well earned 4th place in every race. So I don't have to look at his angry little spud face in close up.
I can't help feeling a bit sorry for Shakey .. He has been shafted by the showdown after leading the championship all the way through
Yeah, I hate that in the Rugby Premiership too, you can get too easily penalised at the end despite any consistency throughout the year.
Couldn't have said it better myself, hope Brookes get's a DNF so he's not in contention for the title. Other than that I don't really mind who takes the title after all the entertainment they've given us this year. Like Dan says, it's a bit of a kick in the teeth for Shakey, but i'd quite like Hopper to be there!
well the race this afternoon was a cracker and poor shakey binned it big time in qualifying but did race. won,t mention results incase anyone not yet seen it. bring on tommorow. !!
Just catching up on sky+ only on the supersport race 1 but love Ben wilson style on the bike. Very aggressive and hangy offy
Yep, today's racing proved all the above points and that's all I'll say until everyone else has seen it.
Another good clean but hard fought race can't wait until Sunday .Has Kiyonari lost the plot? (Can't see a queue to resign him)
Great prediction from Andrew, there. Got six numbers for Wednesday night, mate? I do hate seeing riders come off but I will own up to to being more upset about brookes' bike than him. Glad he walked, though. Shame it wasn't a longer one.
What a performance from Wilson and Seely AGAIN.. Awesome stuff .. I though as it started who ever wins deserves it but i was shouting for Seely .. Congratulations to him.. Ok lets have the big bikes
i must say that BSB has gone to the top of my list for racing this year!! thought id have a nice relaxing day in front of the tv, no not to be, edge of the seat stuff!! Hopper was my favourite from the beginning, closely followed by byrne, but cant complain with the end result really! good racing won!!
Am i the only 1 that found the last race boring ? it was an 18 lap 5 bike choo choo train . Last 2 laps yeah awesome but i was hoping for an epic battle .. The supersport final was like that from the start to finsh so really enjoyed that Had to feel for Hopper at the end , He wanted that big time ,, Really hope to see him in MotoGP next year
yes it was a bit gutting for hopper but what a close finish and if he never had the bike problem race 2 would have been a different story.. good to see brookes go down race 2 hope rutter gave him a wave as he went past. hope to see hopper in bsb again next year as if he go,s moto gp again can see him mid table again on an uncompetitive bike (well compared to yamaha and honda anyway) whereas be at the sharp end in bsb.
