May want to throw a spoiler alert on the title because us poor guys watch it on speed at 2 central!!

WSBK is always crazy. These guys push so hard, almost as if points don't matter. They will throw it away chasing 8th place as if the were racing for the last race of their careers. I love it!

leons hardly ''new'' this is his first time on decent quipment though. also loved all the stunting going on, between fab doing stoppies lining up from the warm up and laverty pulling wheelies on the red flag you can tell these guys are itching to get the season going

Right. But new to the top of that leader board. I'm just excited that the season is off to a great mixed up start!

Looks like its gonna be a dog fight. Toseland and Crutchlow seem to have some speed, Checa may be on fire with the satelitte Duc, Biaggi will have his streaks. Haslam and Rea are youg, dumb, and full rum.

That is what I love about WSBK, it is always ecitimg, never predictable, and full of fast guys.

im curious to see how toseland does at 100% also worried about vermulen, that was a hard ass hit. I hear he didnt break anything but still that was quite a whack. Xaus was everything ive come to expect of him :lol: why he didnt get canned last year i'll never know

He smacked those tires hard. He's lucky the bike didn't land back on him.

Toseland won the championship on a CBR, is used to MotoGP electronics, so when he gets his 'feel' dialed in to the Yamaha he should come alive. The BMWs made a good showing albeit lackluster results. Look for them to factor in by this summer.
