Congrats to James, he seemed to be perfectly in control of the race. (which was a bit boring by the way).
that was one boring race. pity for bayliss, just hope he hasn't injured himself badly otherwise its looks as though toseland will be out on his own at the front for race 2

ive just started watching f1 this season just to see how lewis does. i make sure im doing something else while im watching otherwise id fall asleep
the only exciting part is a crash or who gets out of pitlane first...
WSB was a bit dull i have to say. good on JT though!
i heard he's bringing a cd out with crash, cant wait to hear that! (if its true that is)

I considered going to donny this weekend...........oh well.
1st race was like watching paint dry, good win for JT though................ race.
Race two was pretty good - man Haga was lucky I felt, it looked like Biaggi had it in the bag (apart from the overshooting the corners a few times) - really good race, would have prefered Max to have won though - he deserved it.
Looked a bit sparce on the fan front - what was the gate?

It wasnt boring at all
Well, I went to it and racing one was quite good, watching all the people at the back changing, and a huge crash from (who?) when he flipped over, which I was next to. (I'm next to all the crashes! Like the barcelona 1! And xauses....) but yes, second race was better, (poor JT though) what a last corner performance by haga, and I loved his wig. Too windy though!!! Someone tell me what happened in the crash in supersport, I couldnt see the big screen enough!!!?!!

Bayliss has always had trouble riding under pressure and dealing with problems so i wasnt too surprised, its still a shame though i hope his hand is ok. JT did brilliantly but how frustrating to have a honda break on him.
Xaus put in a solid second race and both yamaha guys did very well (the tires lasted better). Biaggi shouldn't have made that error, but Haga did everything right by riding his ... till he made the mistake.
The sofuoglu did a brilliant job of riding to the win no matter what tried to stop him, and made an excellent hit for his championship effort.

couldn't tell what happened in the supersport crash - one of the bikes dumped a load of someting [fluid] all over the track and the three guys following him went down.
cameras missed it so i didn't see owt - hope they're ok tho - the guy who was still on the track seemed to be in a bad way

I was there and I gotta say there weren't nearly as many as I was expecting. Not nearly as many as for the GP. Still took us three hours to get out the carpark though

1 question: Why do all british fans like Haga next to Toseland? He's Japanese, not british so why?

my dad read this topic I'm trying to get him on here too, he NEEDS to get his own fantasy team here!!!, he said that the engine of one of the bikes in the supersport had blown up too, he saw it on tv

and tom, bayliss is a 2 times world champion, I think he can deliver a solid finish even when he's under pressure! like last year in assen in the rain he rode a fantastic race where he fell off his bike a couple of times (he lost his nail in race 1), and still he did a good job!

Bayliss won both of his world titles having built a comfortable early lead and removing pressure from himself later. Bayliss is obviously an excellent rider and amongst the worlds best. But often in the past bayliss has made mistakes or had poor performances when things arn't working too well for him or he is over riding his bike, thats why i wasn't too shocked to see him fall.

Haga is quite simply one of the most exciting riders that WSB has to offer - if Haga San is having a good day - there ain't no-one he can't beat.

yeah i think its that he is one of the most spectacular riders the world superbikes has ever seen, and so quick when hes on form. he makes a race exciting and the superbike loving british crowds love him for it.
