No. 55 was the team that were having trouble with front and rear lights and the team manager was summoned to the stewards...

As has been said the Discovery+ app is what you need, that’s what I have, well worth it.Noggin wrote: ↑Sat Sep 17, 2022 7:42 pm I do wish I had eurosport!!!

Thank you for posting so much. It's really interesting, even if I haven't followed the series x

5 hours 20 minutes left, looks like it's been a drama free night, I think Ducati will win

I tried paying for Eurosport one year - can't get the UK Eurosport in France and French Eurosport doesn't show BSB
Weirdly, I had expected Canal+ to show both the French WSB and maybe Bol d'or, but I can't find them on there

Re: Bol D'Or
It seems to be bubbling up quite nicely with an hour and a half to go. The lead Ducati has a couple of laps over the chasing pack, but is losing a second a lap compared to the following teams. Not sure whether that's down to the rider (currently David Checa) or the bike losing performance.

Re: Bol D'Or
Checa just looks like it's not trying as hard as everyone else, he's not hung off as much, much more efficient in his movements, but then him and Xavi have been doing double stints cos Chaz has backache.

Re: Bol D'Or
It happened quite literally 3 minutes after I was explaining to the wife how no one thought the Ducati would last this long.
I jinxed it!

Re: Bol D'Or
I did the opposite when I said in the first hour that the Ducati would blow up, the Suzuki did instead.
Things looking serious for the Ducati clutch.
I'm still rather nastily hoping the Honda dies so Suzuki get the championship, this is very unlikely and Honda deserve the championship, I bet Watanabe isn't very popular at SERT

You couldn't write this!

Nice to see him being cheered pushing it down the pit lane.

Re: Bol D'Or
The 11 Kawasaki which had electrical problems at about 6 hours is now up to 3rd, shows that it's worth not giving up.
