Have to agree, Race 2 was much better, though race 1 wasn't to bad either!
JT didn't do too bad in the end, especially in race 2, which was nice!
Biaggi (and Camier for that matter) on the Aprillia was very impressive, but you're right where were the Xerox ducatis? Haga did better in the second race, but I don't remember hearing the commentators mention Fabrizio at all - Strange.
I'll see how things go next race weekend but it might be time to make a few adjustments to my team!

Race 1 was pretty good but Race 2 was fantastic.Haslam really seems to be on top of his game at the moment.But how fast is that Aprilia in a straight line ?,it was like watching Stoner back in 2007.Haslam would nail Biaggi only for him to just blast back past him down the straight.How useful is that thing going to be around circuits like Monza & Silverstone ?.What the hell is going on at Xerox Ducati ?,those boys were useless yesterday.Yet Shakey (who lets not forget was riding injured) & Checa seemed to be going well enough on the privateer bikes ?.April 11th is the next WSBK and 1st MotoGP round,told the Mrs. not to expect too much getting done on that day ! :)
Joined Eurosport last night and it seems pretty good.The VOD section does not have any commentary though which is a bit wierd ?.The races are being re-run (with commentary) at 7.45 tonight so will watch those.The Eurosport player has 3 quality settings and my connection seems to handle the highest one fine (you guys @ Freeola could expect some serious toys to be thrown out of my pram if it didn't !).Even at full screen settings it looks really good.When you look at it per race it's actually pretty cheap.Especially as BSB is on there as well.
Watched the end of Superpole last night.In the post race interview I thought Cal Crutchlow was a tad on the cocky side TBH.Much as I like and rate the guy he hasn't actually won a WBSK race yet.He can't get complacent at this level those guys will punish him big style for that.Reckon he has a good chance today,be great if he could win one of the races.His team mate is having a horrible time of it though.Hope he can have a couple of solid races this afternoon,he deserves that.Hard not to feel sorry for JT at the moment,it doesn't seem to happening for him for whatever reason ?.

Crutchlow on pole by nearly half a second !.He was 4 tenths faster than Spies pole from last year,got to be impressed with that.
Yeah agree mate,JT does deserve a bit of luck.Reckon he may have his work cut out tomorrow from 15th on the grid though.Haslam and Rea have been on it this weekend,expecting them to feature as well.
Should be good tomorrow.Going to join Eurosport later so I can watch the races when I get in from work.Mrs. has just informed it's the Strictly Come Dancing On Ice final tomorrow night.So it's that load of crap or WSBK when I get in from work tomorrow.
Erm...........now let me think ! :)

Portimao WSB this weekend - In Friday practice JT was topping the timesheets with Haslam second.
Really hope JT manages a podium this weekend, think he deserves one after last season!

Think anyone who knows anything about bike racing is of the opinion that Mr.Spies is the real deal.Not only did he win the WSBK at his first attempt he was probably only on the 3rd best bike.Isn't he in your MCN fantasy team as well ?.

Stick with 08 version mate,it's a much better game.Bit sorry I sold my copy now TBH :(
Blur is great fun if you fancy a new racing game,it's due out at the end of May.Don't think it's coming out on the Wii though (360,PS3,PC I think).

Well done for waking this one up Pete, reminded me the MotoGP people are testing this week.

Had a quick read of the FB Corse story, looks like theres an update where they have 'clarified' that they only have approval for entering the series from round three. I guess we'll wait and see on that one.
More bikes on the grid can't be a bad thing though so lets hope it all comes together.

New team FB Corse to enter the series from round 3 with Garry McCoy riding.
Very brave,not going to be easy for them at all.It's still another bike on the grid which has got to be good.
Suzi Perry has stood down from her role on the BBC MotoGP team.There's a new girl taking her place,don't know what she's like though,never heard of her ?.
Oh yeah,that new MotoGP game wasn't very good.Wouldn't buy bother buying it TBH.

Gah! Bullshrimp! Nooooooooooooooo! I hate RROD. Next time it happens to me, I'm getting a PS3 (seeing as I'll be out of warranty). Not before I'd attempt to fix it myself :P
Well,I would have reported back if my 360 hadn't just RROD'd ! :(
