WSB back in town....
JR took the SPR and Race1 last year, AB took Race2....I think a possible Ducati/Yamaha podium lockout.
edited to add - Most probably going to rain both days...that might change things!

Be interesting to see how Brad Ray performs. He knows the track well enough.

I think Shakey will wear New Balance trainers, Whitham will wear adidas, Roberts will wear Converse and Haydon will wear some expensive Boss ones.

1st blood to Bautista. Rea 2nd. I think he won't have an easy ride. Not sure what trainers the Eurosport team are wearing.

Bauty smashing them. Rea and MotoGP reject Toprak left in the dust.
Seeing as the other Ducatis don't seem to win, I wonder when the weight argument will arise again. It must be the weight. Nothing to do with talent.

No rain tomorrow (until post-racing)….so more of the same. He’s 10kg lighter than Rea, and the bike is a great package…..not surprising.

Be interesting to see how Brad Ray performs. He knows the track well enough. 47s behind Bautista. Welcome to WSB level. Toprak is an incredible WSB level rider but I think that MotoGP test has backfired massively. Get the feeling hes gone from thinking a move to Yamaha factory GP was his choice / option. Jarvis has made it clear that is not the case at all. |

Jarvis has made it clear that is not the case at all. I wouldn't write off Ray after 1 race. He was in front of Van der Mark and in 14th before hitting reverse. I suspect a problem. Talking about problems what the fuck is going on in the Sykes garage? |

Sykes is just grifting for the retirement fund. He should never have gone back.
Superglue has now said something about how they built Toprak for superbike not MotoGP. No shit. That's worked out well for MotoGP then.

So Toprak staying in WSB, word from the paddock according to Chaz and Shakey….if there’s no factory option in MGP it’s probably the best thing to stay where he is, earn a good crust and be able to fight for the championship.
