I know most seem to have given up on this race series, but it’s been a good year so far for racing. The first race at Assen was a belter, well worth a watch

Race 2 tomorrow.

I've thoroughly enjoyed every race this year, but I was a weird one and have been enjoying wsbk for the past 8 years. This year is probably the best yet

I watched some of the last round. It was actually really good racing. I’m going check some more of it out, for sure.

Supersport was totally brillant

Superbike as usual is about as dull as it gets

Lowes needs sacking, both of them are mentally incapable of being top level

Are you talking about race one? If so describing it as dull is about as far wide of the mark as you can get.

Sack Lowes because his team put the wrong tyre in the front? Yeah, that makes sense rolleyes

Would you carry on employing a rider who has spent most of his life in your team crashing? Lowes and his brother are crashers, ever since they got to the top level.

Take the piss all you want, but I find the fact they are in good teams and commentator fawning over them like they are Gods rather pathetic.How in Gods name Alex won the BSB title I don't know, ever since then he is crashed his way through every team he has ridden for.

Quick yes, but surely there has to be an end to this crashing.

Oh and morons, I was talking about the second race

I asked if you were talking about race 1, as wasn’t sure if race 2 had been run at the point you posted your comment.

“Morons” - nice. We really do need a wker smiley on here

...and nice to see Assen in the sunshine...WSB was great but WSS was top entertainment, gutted for Luke Stapleford getting the" ride through "time added, he didnt seem to have done anything wrong to me?

Haven’t seen WSS but WSB race 1 was very good, race 2 was unusually dull. It’s been a good series so far this year, has got a lot of its mojo back.
