Big balls needed for high speed shenanigans at the airfield.

Bridewell and Irwin were up at the front last year,can Tommy make the Homda work this year?

Eh? I think it was their worst round last year,I don't think the Ducati likes being on the side of the tyre.
The power of the Japanese across the frame 4's seem to suit the place best.
I don't know how Tommy will go around there as it's a while since he raced there on a bike other than a Ducati,he has to be confident the way his season's going.I think O'halloran & Kent will be on the podium at some point,Ohalloran seems to enjoy the place.

Lots of thrills & spills in all the races.I've now nominated that chicane as even dafter than the one at the end of the lap at Assen,carnage central!

What channel was day one of BSB & WSB on?

I can see day 2 highlights on Eurosport.

I haven't got Discovery Plus on my TV box

Good to see Lewis Rollo a local lad to me doing well.

A brave move being the only Aprilia on the grid.

I thought Rollo was going to win at Snetterton last month.
The team's based down the road from me,I knew Ian Newton back in our teens.He started racing LC's,now he's team boss in the BSB paddock.
