2024 World Superbike at Cremona

It said technical issues, so might just be that race direction needed the cameras to function, they let the race be 2/3 completed and voilà, race done?

I really enjoy how Ducati refuse to play the long game in either championship, and let their riders battle it out. Would never have floated in F1.

Same as you @JFM01, I really hope Toprak is back in the next round. Missed him.

In the WSSP, the trio at the front didn't disappoint initially. Although Huertas would have needed to remain last of the three, and behind Montella. A real shame for Yari, as he was on a good trajectory before the crash.

I really hope Toprak's injury doesn't cost him the title. That would be so unfair, given what happened the last two years.
If he is back at Aragon, I just hope he is available to go 100%

I like the carting track. It emphasizes rider skill, and seems to de-emphasize setup a bit. Grab the bars and make it go around corners. Only Yamaha suffered at Cremona. I guess the heavy crank and unconventional firing order hindered their acceleration. New R1M homologation on the way for 2025, IIRC.

The camera positioning could have been better. Too many low angle shots that were somewhat disorienting, and made it difficult to spatially understand the layout. Drone shots helped. The loss of communications during Race 1 was unfortunate, but that's what happens when you're putting on races in the middle of nowhere.

Petrucci was amazing. Iannone faded. Bautista did well to recover from poor qualifying. Honda did not embarrass themselves! Gerloff showed why he deserves better than a satellite Kawasaki ride, but maybe he'll get lucky and BiMota will start making an impact right away.

Come back, Toprak!
