Why I'll never take a bike to the ring...

Under those circumstances I would expect most cars to take the racing line through most corners. It seems very foolish to me to risk your life on the assumption that they won't. It may be that the circuit rules say they're in the wrong, but that won't be any consolation to your next of kin.

+1.

I've been to the ring a couple of times now, and I've never seen anyone adhering to these rules, bikes and cars alike.

(in fact, I have a video of myself and a mate stuck behind some slower bikers who kept coming across to the left to hit the apex - we didn't dare overtake as there almost certainly would have been a collision)

Ive just looked at the clip again - was there even contact between the car and the bike?? The bike certainly goes down prior to reaching the back of the car...
