SBK Round 2 - Phillip Island

[ChrisS]

Kagayama is once again injured and will miss Australia as well as the tests at Valencia. Kagayama has a broken left collarbone from crash on lap 1 of race 2 in Qatar.

IIRC Kevin Curtain was going to wild card on an MV Agusta is that still happening?

I would like to see that

Kev won't be wildcarding in WSB (as I understand), too much work in too little time with the Aus Supers just around the corner. He will be good to watch in the support races though.

I'm so pumped for the superbikes this weekend. The racing is gonna be awesome! We are so fortunate in Aus, the support racing is excellent with 4 races this year from all support categories in Superbike, Supersport and the Forgotten Era bikes (old dinosaur bikes and riders!). The weather is gonna be fine and mid-twenties and I get Friday off work. You beauty!

My picks for the races (I really have no idea)
WSB race 1
1. Corser
2. Bayliss
3. Haga

WSB race 2
1. Haga
2. Bayliss
3. Xaus

WSS
1. Pitt
2. Parkes
3. Brookes

Troy vs Troy at the front. 2 Ten Kates didnt make the superpole, things dont look good for the top Honda team

Troy Bayliss after Superpole when asked about the 8 stitches in his elbow:-

"You dont bend your elbow so much when your moving round on the bike, probably be harder drinking a beer *smirk* .."

GOLD!

Race1:
1. Bayliss
2. Neukirchner
3. Smrz

Race2:
1. Corser
2. Bayliss
3. Checa

WSS:
1. Parkes

AH, brings a tear to the eye, and makes you proud to be an Aussie. You have to salute a man that is not complaining about riding with an injury like that, but more concerned about how he is going to manage drinking a cold frosty one

WSB race 1
