I think the obvious answer is Rea.... But... well, maybe....

Scotty.

Voted for Davies but I'd love to see Lowes with the number 1 plate

Go,go. Go Johnny go.

Johnny be good.

Hard to bet against him,but the sharks are always circling and there are several this year to give him a run for his money.

Redding,Raz,Rinaldi,Gerloff,Lowes and Bautista. I don't see Sykes or Van Der Mark being a consistent threat over a season,mostly because of the bike they are on.

On paper it should be a hotly contested year. The Honda will be fast.

When I watch it I really enjoy WSB, but I just never get the time after watching GPs Should make more of an effort.

And then there's BSB as well!

Session 1

Toprak
Chaz
gerloff
Lowes
Rinaldo
Rea
Sykes
Haslam
VDM
Bautista
Redding
Rabat
Folger.

I vote Toprak.

Cos I like his pork pie hat and waistcoat.

I would like to see Redding take the title this year just to shake things up .... He did well last year on a new bike with some tracks he didnt know. This year its a more level playing field

Chaz
Rea
Redding
Baut
Has
Lowes
Final
Toprak

Just watched FP2 and I just realised what's up. WSB use different camera sites to MotoGP and you can't see as much. You don't see the huge bloody wall (that I saw from the road when I drove past) and you don't get a good view of the corkscrew.

And they're 2.7 seconds slower then the MotoGP FP2 from last year.

I'd like to see Chaz Davies across the line

Are you particular about which position over the line?

First over the line would be good... but staying out of the dirt would be excellent. He's got better at that, but sometimes picking up SOME points rather than 'win or bin' would be a better championship strategy. Rea (and Sykes when he was in his championship year) were excellent at that.

McFee and Lowes seem to have the same problem.

I was away for the weekend, but y'all either didn't watch or care enough to start a thread.

So for a brief one.... here's the current overall
JONATHAN REA 110 KAWASAKI
TOPRAK RAZGATLIOGLU 75 YAMAHA
SCOTT REDDING 72 DUCATI
ALEX LOWES 62 KAWASAKI
CHAZ DAVIES 48 DUCATI
GARRETT GERLOFF 42

Gerloff for me with numpty of the weekend. Chaz with a noble mention for a 2nd place. Rea doing what Rea does and just stacking up points after points....

Mostly because of Eurosport's cockups,I didn't even get to see the final two races until today.

Gerloff is going to get himself a reputation for taking other riders out. It's allvery well talking from the comfort of my chair,but it's a fine line between aggressive,but clean and aggressive,but reckless.

He'll have a grid penalty for this one.
