He has pr people?

Trouble is and its hard for me to say this but Bridewells made a few rash moves in the past so it was a bit rich him going on about stupid,dangerous riders.

Secondly if during your interview your going to pull faces and generally act as if you've been knocked stupid then you should pull yourself out of the race.

Saying that 4th was a good result and I want the old mental bridewell back.

As much of a bridewell fanboy I am , he shouldn't be racing if he's saying he's concussed and pulling faces on the grid.
That's normal for him.

I didn't see the grid walk / interview before race 2. The way Buchan was moving around throughout race 1, I was surprised that he stayed on as long as he did. From Bridewell's perspective, it might be that the incident was the culmination of many near-crashes, even if, as you say, the moment he crashed wasn't particularly dangerous.

Meanwhile, there's some handbags at WSB (it's some world championship series thing, at Sepang this round). Rea wouldn't shake hands, and there wasn't any talking during parc ferme. Davies was sideways for most of the last lap's corners - it was great.

Rea wouldn't shake Davies hand or Sykes?

Rea wouldn't shake Davies hand on the cool down lap. He also stopped as I think he thought he'd done enough to win the championship or something.
All was forgotten about by the post race interviews though. I think it was just heat of the moment thing. There's an interview with them both from after the race and rea seemed fine. Having w laugh with chat and said he'd do the same.

That Brooke's burnout was classic. Loved it. Took it on the chin though in all the press conferences.

Rea is probably quite glad Davies took the win on a personal level, if he had won the title he said his wife wouldn't have talked to him for a few days as she wasn't there at the weekend. So Davies did him a favour. smile

Re brookes going to race in germany this weekend.

Is he mad so far that bike has hospitalised neukirchner, cudlin , kev coghlan at the weekend.

He's got the best chance he's ever had of being bsb champ and would be a shame for him to get injured taking a one off ride to please yamaha.

I think he's trying to prove something to Yamaha, both around Suzuka amd wanting to be a or tof the WSB set up next year when they go back.

Think your charity is getting some of my money too after Kiyo being ste at the weekend.
