This will be replayed again.

Turn 1, Rea loses the front end and he is on his knee and elbow turning through T1 for ages before recovering it, went off track and only lost one place.

Amazing.
I have to admire Rea’s awesome skill / commitment / consistency - but really want Scott to win it.
With the gap growing it seems less likely that’s going to happen unless Rea has a few of these that he doesn’t save…

Thing is even when things go wrong for rea like yesterday or the previous race where he was pushed off the track he still recovers and gets decent points where as redding doesn't seem to manage that as well .

AS said before, he is a top 6 and podium GP rider racing in a national series basically. Best bike, best rider by far, it's like Mladin in the late 90's and early 00's in AMA Superbike.

I so wish he had come over to GP racing when he had the chance, SBK could have been so much more unpredictable. You cant blame him for earning top dollar and winning everything, but surely he must be a bit bored now!

Dunno what's going on with Eurosport coverage this year?

My Sky+ only picked up the highlights for recording last week, then for Misano, it picked up the "live races" but missed the sprint race.
Not sure if it is a Sky issue or if not all races are being shown live on Eurosport?

Bit odd.

Eurosport player can be had for half price at the minute (£25), its well worth it.

£25 for the year? FFS I do my hardest to resist spending my while life watching motorbike racing then someone shoves unadulterated temptation under my nose.

Roll on retirement!
