Quick recovery that, Irwin now passed fit to ride according to the BSB FB page.

From broken neck and suspected back to back in the saddle on the same day, I'd say he missed his calling as a Premiership striker.

Very pleased to see a Suzuki back on top; cracking ride by Brad Ray! He didn't buckle under the pressure in that last lap.

Great ride by the lad but as we saw with Guinters last season the Suzuki seems to go well at GP circuits and maybe not so well at some of the cart tracks we have it BSB. That may hold him back with regards the showdown. I know it's early days but it would be good if he got a factory Suzuka 8hr ride to showcase his talent on world stage.

The forecast has improved greatly, just rain until 1pm. The rain radar confirms this, clearer weather approaching.

Listening to race radio it sounds as though they are racing.

Can anyone think of a bigger surprise in BSB than Brad Ray doing the double?
I'm hoping this heralds a legendary season.

Let's get carried away and start talking about skipping WSB and going straight to MotoGP after winning BSB this year

He looked even better today than yesterday. In the interview on Eurosport he said something like that over the winter the team had fixed a lot of the issues of the bike they had had at some tracks. I saw a brief shot from this morning of the state of the track before it stopped raining, practically a river running over Craner.

5 different manufacturers out of the 6 podium places. Loathe to say it cos I still haven't forgiven him for killing the 2T's but Higgs is doing something right.

Hopefully not a one off meeting: First day back at school Brad R ragging it, not calculating it Weather generally resulting in caution Wide range of tyre selections etcs
