Post by Ducman »

Silverstone; World Superbike Race 1 - Summary

Troy Bayliss has won the first World Superbike race at Silverstone, after holding off challenges from second placed Nori Haga and third placed Troy Croser in appallingly wet conditions.

Roby Rolfo was fourth, Regis Laconi fifth, Max Baiggi sixth and Lorenzo Lanzi seventh.

James Toseland crashed on lap three while fighting for fourth place. He rejoined the race in 18th place and worked his way back to eighth, passing some riders and seeing others crash out of the race. Only thirteen riders finished the race
Race 2 cancelled due to weather

meanwhile in Catalunya
from Speed
In the hottest race of the season so far, Casey Stoner has scorched to a stunning, tension-filled victory in the Catalunya Grand Prix. The 21 year-old Australian claimed his fourth win of the season after a titanic three-way battle that included Valentino Rossi and Dani Pedrosa.

After a tense, late race contest over the final six laps, Stoner’s Ducati finished just 0.069s ahead of Yamaha-mounted Rossi with Pedrosa’s Honda in third, a further 0.2s behind. It was a classic contest in Catalunya, easily the best race of the season with multiple lead changes in hot summer weather

YES!!
An absolute blinder of a race. The race was live here in NZ at about 0:30am Monday morning, so taped it and watched it Monday night. Didn't bother with the timer just pressed record and went to bed. So the 3 hour tape ran to 3hours and 4 minutes; the race finished 1 minute before the tape ended. Made it.

I had to make the choice between the Canadian F-1 race and the Moto GP as I had to go out, hopefully they will rebroadcast it later in the week as it sounded amazing. Stoner appears to be the real deal :thumbup:
