24th - 25th March www.worldsbk.com/en/event/THA/2018Excellent start to the season in PI, now lets see if it was down to the track; fast tracks = great racing! I still think that its crap that Suzuki don't have an team or are at least providing official support to one in the championship. |

Shakey was saying because the Ducati has lost 750 rpm due to the rule changes they have had to raise the gearing, so the bike has less acceleration. As Davies is a lot heavier than Melandri its hurting Davies quite a bit on acceleration. He does look to have slowed compared to the others over the winter.

Shame Camier didnt get a podium. He will be on pole for R2 though.
The reverse grid I dont like, but the changes to the rules over the winter have definitely closed things up between the Kawasaki and Ducati factory boys and the rest.

You gotta hope that Camier gets a win soon. He doesn't deserve the 'title' he's homing in on.

Hopefully ELav's injuries arent too bad, from what Shaun Muir said it sounded quite serious about him not being able to feel his feet at first although that feeling came back.
Apart from that, quite a good race 2 & WSS as well.

Race 1 was excellent, edge of the seat stuff; Race 2 and WSS were a bit more processional up front, but still entertaining further down the field.
