Liked the races but the commentary team are doing my head in, to the extent that I am probably going to cancel my Eurosport subscription when it comes up for renewal.
Greg Haynes is clueless and JT says some really odd things, terrible commentary but the races were real edge of the seat stuff.......well in the early stages anyway!! Bautista was amazing!!
The team had raced with Öhlins suspension in 2020 and 2021 but, at the Jerez test in December, had been testing with Showa suspension. The team had been running Nissin brakes as well.
Yes I know that @BlackDevil James Toseland said they had moved from Brembo to 'NISSAN' brakes! He actually said the word 'NISSAN' you know .......NISSAN...the car maker?? ffs
JT was a good rider but he is a crap commentor, so much so I had to turn the sound off, was like watching electric bikes but even that was better than listening to his inaine bollox
It's the other one that's worse like listening to a 12yr old bring in Keith out of retirement...he was great when he stood in the last few rounds of BSB last year....also those 2 Honda riders same position as last year...great to see BMW up the river without a paddle.....should of kepted Tom .
Agree I ended up switching to a non english channel (despite not understanding the language) Last year redding had a stab at JT saying he was not supporting the brits!!! A good commentator is an unbiased one but the comment must have rattled JT and who now cannot stop praising the brits to comical levels. Unless he goes back to his good more impartial commentating, he adds no value.
He also basically said the BMW is a pile of crap and that Redding was going to struggle. That won't have helped their friendship He is kind of right though
totally agree; even I questioned the move with my zero behind the scene knowledge. Maybe he felt he could not deliver, being updaged by JR & toprak, who knows why
Is it just me or does it feel like there is a very long wait between wsbk race weekends???? Its ridiculous!!! Bsb is the same!! Moto gp more or less every fortnight sometimes the following week. Apart from the summer break its always on the box!! How the frig can that bell end commentator Greg Haines even suggest wsbk is better than Moto gp I'll never know He actually did BTW
Greg Haines is a complete cock wombling fuck nugget. He is so far up Rea's arse it's not surprising KRT are struggling with setup under braking what with having 2 blokes on the bike! I can sort of understand it for BSB, afterall there are other sports using the tracks and people need a holiday, and IIRC not all the teams employ people permanently so they have other jobs too. Can't see any excuse for WSBK though beyond a mid season break like MotoGP.
for many reasons, I find F1 a bore. One being that there are just too many races. I already find motogp has too many events and with ducati having such a dominant bike it can become boring unless they get beaten by the underdogs such as FQ. WSBK could reduce the number of races by one per event and increase the number of meetings. Maybe cost restriction us their obstacle
