That’s as a great race. Proper racing and rubbing.

No idea how Iddon stayed on after the flag though yikes

Was watching that through my hands! Thought his arm was going to get caught in the wheel! Saw something similar at Oulton many years ago, John Reynolds I think it was on the Rizla Suzuki celebrating and rode into the back of a rider and fell off.

Good racing in all the classes today.

Farrer and Bourne making us county durham lads proud in the talent cup.

Rory Skinner showing his class once again.

Shame Ryde had a bike issue just as the pace car came out. He was lucky not to be collected when the bike cut out. Nice to see that his pace coming back tbrough the pack has out him in 4th (i think?) For tomorrow.

Really felt for Buchann when he tucked the front on the restart, hopefully he can be right there in the mix tomorrow.

Despite locking out the podium its clear the Ducati's are struggling with the new tyres, over the moon Iddon bagged his first win.

Brad Ray seems to be getting his mojo back as well, rode a really strong race but just fell foul of the charging Ducatis on the last few laps.

Tarron struggles appear to be continuing and whats happening with Hicky? He is getting outclassed by a lot of other riders on BMW's this year, I really expected him to come out fairly strong this year.

Yeah that was scary with Iddon's arm. Looked like it got briefly wedged between tyre and underside of tail judging by the puff of smoke. Have no idea how he pulled himself upright again.

Nah. He's fast as fook. He'll steady up eventually.
You can slow down a fast rider ...

I think he set his stall out in his first race in 2018, continued to develop it in 2019, but has really raised his crashing game in 2020. There are always two sides to the story in any crash but the pattern is not good...

I predict he will either put himself or someone else in hospital in a very nasty accident soon.

Tough job for Beltran, you have to try and reign it in and he sort of talked about that post race, but if you reign it in too much he maybe loses the edge, but he has been reckless for a long time A Irwin, needs to spend a bit more time talking to his brother who learned the hard way about riding like that and now looks very polished.

Some great racing though, and fair play to Haydon for saying it as it was, need more of that from pundits.

Wasn't it A Irwin on Redding at Cadwell last year too? They had a right barney afterwards at trackside!

That was just handbags.

He wants to take Bridewell out , he'd just loose his st with irwin.

He's trying so hard to be professional and say the right things on tv but you know the sweary mentalist is bubbling under the surface.
