WSBK Testing Starts Tmrw

[Yorick]

It's only testing but always gives a taster of what's to come

I think the testing has been shortened than what was originally planned because of logistical problems, something to do with the cargo ships I believe, I’m sure I read that the other day.

Looking at the WSS results from this, they seem to have got things right as all the bikes seem sort of equal. Tom Booth Amos is only half a second off the pace, but McCrash is struggling

McPhee nearly a second slower than his team-mate. Not good.

some interesting results again, Bulega and Ianononnonoe being 2 of them...

WTF are Petronas doing with TMc and Norrodin.... i mean i know he got a decent result in the rain/damp, but 3s+ is just not even worth bothering at this level. Brad Ray not doing a hell of a lot better and the Factory HRC Hondas, well that's just pathetic.. How have Honda lost their way so so badly in all racing.

Lots to chew on there on the team mate front.

Rea over a second slower than Loca.

Toprak over a second faster than VDM.

Bulega about 0.7 faster than Bau Bau.

Gerloff over a second slower than Redding.

At least team mates Taz and Norrodin are closer....over 3 seconds a lap off the leaders. Does the boy specifically shop for shit rides?

I really like Bautista, but glad that the performance/weights have been levelled a bit.

You'd think that with his dad having so much experience and maybe a little influence, that he'd get decent rides.
