British Superbikes 2007

That's true, there was quite a lot of yapping.
I have to admit, I was laughing my head off at ITV's choice of James Cracknell as the presenter. He's about a foot taller than most of the bike racers he was talking to!

BSB is right up there for racing!

Camier and Rae show a hell of a lot of promise.

Stalker and Shakey still have the fight to add some mongrel.

Lavilla surely can not run away with the championship.

Tommy Hill is a real chance.

Bring on Thruxton

They showed the races on ITV4.
If Thruxton's a 1:30 timeslot they'll show highlights of the first one then the full second one, or something like that. That's what they did last year anyway.

They only showed highlights of race one last year? How is it that I was able to watch both races from each round last year then?

[ChrisS]

never mind, I just realized I had sky sports last year and I used to watch the races on sky sports, they showed all races delayed

Seems Tommy Hill has found that missing ingredient from round 1.

Can not wait for the races.

I didnt see the race 1 or highlights since it was on at the same time as WSBK race 2

Race 2 was a nice race, Lavilla was walking away with it until the safety car brought everyone together again. I was a little disappointed with Rea's restart he just let Lavilla get away

Then for the last few laps it looked like a lonely Ducati chased be a screaming pack of Hondas but he kept his cool and took win #4 of the season

is it me or is James Cracknell rubbish at BSB?! He tries to sound excited but dosnt pull it off and half the time he dosnt know what hes talking about. Money pinching ITV?

WOW! BSB at Thruxton was something else.

I have never seen the circuit before, but am very impressed by the layout if a little surprised by the safety standard.

The racing again was second to none, Johnny Rae in race 1 was simply awsome.

I hope to make it to the UK sometime in the future to see BSB at Thruxton.

Thanx for the great photos astraracer20.
