    Wsbk should be good this weekend temps 31c or above and some BSB wild cards be interesting how they do without any electronics on a very hot track ....

    I don’t tend to watch much WSBK but a rare day off today so decided to partake in Eurosport’s coverage and all I can say is James Toseland is absolutely dire,the art of a good commentator is knowing when to talk and when to let the pictures do the talking,this guy never stops it’s just constant drivel
    On the plus side some of the footage of them sideways etc is top notch

    Couldn't agree more........Toseland talks more random drivel than sense. I think he tries to come across knowledgeable but I just find myself thinking wtf is he on about!!!

    I know he's a former wsbk champion but I genuinely think I could do a better job than him. I mean.....I correct him more than I do my wife!!!:rolleyes::D

    Can’t beat Murray walker and James Whitman for the best commentary
    And who the f is that women who’s head nearly fall off and can’t stop looking at the camera in bsb
    James and Murray are the best

    Well that was an impressive set of races, even though they only really showed the front bunch. Good to see Scott Redding get on the podium.

    Wasn't impressed with the Director/Producer cutting to the Ducat and missing the dash to the line for Redding and Rea.

    Some more good racing and nice to see some different faces in the mix.

    What the actual f**k was Rea doing. Fair enough if he over cooked it then fine but have the balls to own it. To stand there saying there was no bad intent and that he made his apex is total BS unless Bautista was his apex. You can clearly see he was well off the apex of the other riders, and the apex he used for the rest of the weekend.

    Then for the stewards to see that as only worthy of a single long lap is beyond a joke. Even Tosland was struggling with that decision, but as for that twat Haines making up excuses like the brake vent duct being at the wrong angle, well it just shows what a complete cock womble he is. Eurosport need to kick his sycophantic ass off WSBK and on to something like Crown Green Bowling.

    Jonny Rea or whatever his name is should have had a more severe penalty!! I genuinely dislike him as a sportsman and a person. Sterile and bland personality and if its not going his way, its normally someone else's fault so he'll look to do something sly to try and gain back an advantage. Toprak......exceeding track limits, grass him up!!
    Bautista......I had a DNF so you're having one too!!
    CUNT :mad:

    I saw rae twich his bike to the left to nudge the ducati. To me it look like a professional foul since he did not blame any mechanical issues with his sudden move.
    Long lap was far too light; any points scored should not count or as a minimum, should have been a ride through.
    For someone of his calibre and championship succes, it was very dirty.
    BTW is reading becoming more & more of a moan bag? like nigel mansel :D
