    poor syke. I think honda should grab him

    amazyn display by the turk, I hope he wins chanpionship this year purely because he seems so good on the bike (& off, doesn't say much and doesn't bitch like chas or reading)

    Rea is also riding great & shows excellent personality. I must say I am puzzled by him taking his foot off the left peg into right handers and keeps loosing the bike!

    Maybe he has a short left leg :D:eek:

    Does seem strange that it's mainly right handers he has problems with?

    Skyes is better than VDM, But who knows what goes through the minds of BMW

    Some great racing again. Good to see JR having to earn his keep, although I do wonder if the Kwak performance issue is due to the unexpected back pressure of Greg Haines blowing smoke up Rea's exhaust ;)

    Had to laugh at Toseland getting uppity over BMW's offer to be the piano player in the team :D

    In who's place though?? Brookes or Iddon could potentially be champion after the showdown so would be a tough decision for Birdy!!

    Chaz to retire at the end of the season, Loris Baz replacing him at the next round. Good luck Chaz!

    So what do people make of Rea's behaviour after the Magny-Cours race?

    In my mind it seemed to show a bit of desperation.

    I thought it was very unsporting, snidey and a bit pathetic!!

    I've never really been a fan of his and I really hope Toprak wins the title this year.

    He's probably a nice lad and I've never met him but.......just can't be doing with him:rolleyes:

    Who could of imagined that, race 1 cancelled due to heavy rain, after all they only scheduled the last weekend of the season to be in Indonesia during the monsoon season!

    New schedule for tomorrow

    How good is this for Axel Basasani's confidence, winter testing and winning !!!!! Seriously underrated rider and I think there are big things to come from him providing he gets the opportunities he deserves!!! 20220123_001205.jpg
