WSB

Weren't the WSB races good at the weekend? All three of them. Such a
shame that we don't go to Hockenheim any more and there are so few
tracks like Monza.

 

At least Phillip Island is still in use.
It's a pity the Mt Panorama circuit at Bathurst, Australia in no longer
suitable for motorcycle racing - it too is a classic, ask Mike Hailwood
when you next see him. Unfortuately it is now surrounded by concrete
walls so the tin-tops will stay on the track!

It was the standard "you're about to be lapped" flag shown to
backmarkers.

 

Nope, last lap is white flag as normal.
The blue flag (same in AMA as well) is waved at the
lappers to warn the the fast boys are coming.

It's a shame the WSS field is so spread out this year. The Ten Kate
Hondas have had a second a lap on everyone else again. But even the next
group are quite spread out. A few years ago we would have had 10 bikes
in the leading bunch.

 

My take on it was that we was mixing it with them until a block pass
in the chicane balked him really badly, and he lost the the tow.
