I snoozed a little mid race, but that's just old age.

Race was entertaining

That was one example of Bautista being penalised for being too light.

I saw that from the pics. You make that 125 GSXR look small. :silent:

It was a mechanical, the rear tyre failed. You can see it clear as day when they show the slow motion replay.

Not surprised when he’s having to ride the absolute arse off that bike just to keep ahead of that Ducati. The tyre decides fuck it I’ve had enough. Unbelievable racing, Toprak making moves from a mile back, I could watch that all day.

Just caught up on it all, some cracking racing there and good to see the main class mixed up a bit from what has become the norm, but my highlight was SSP race2, so so happy for Taz- he got lucky of course, but his class showed through 8-)

Some cracking racing,just finished up this morning. Bautista must have slipped Toprak's tyre monkeys a few quid! I wonder have team Kawasaki turned a corner to be closer to the front,or was it just the circuit?

Great emotional scenes in Taz's garage too. There's some passion there for sure.

That’s not entirely correct, Ducati lost revs after round 3 and 6 and Kawasaki were given revs after round 3 and 6. The total for both is 500rpm.
