I keep getting a mental picture of him when he takes off, mental.

The shape of the Poole track is ok, it's the waves and potholes that cause the problems, oh and the oil of course..

Agreed re the amateur reference, I've never seen a decent meeting shown from this track, criminal really when you consider it was 'purpose built' from scratch.

It's like watching the old training schools at Hyde Rd on a Saturday morning, riders all over the shop. Did they mention new material from a different source, or did I imagine that?

I make that Rob B 2 - Wolfsbane 0

Dream on fella.

Here's the clue Nige, it's a World Championship, it's highly likely that many races will have World Champions in them.

No, just a camera opportunity.

Pearson concurring with that, likening it to the Kop @ Anfield back in the day.

Been the same nearly every gp, it's as though he feels the pass is inevitable, serious confidence issues, such a shame as he qualified by right to be in the series.

Ooooh matron..

Ah, perfect timing r&r, was just starting to feel dejected.

So no chance then?

Am I reading this right, you're suggesting Dan has more talent in his left ear than both Madsen & Auty combined? Can't argue with that.

Are you watching a rerun of last Monday's meeting?

Alright for some innit, I wash up/take the bins out/feed the cat between races, maybe that's why I've noticed the gaps, last Monday I had all my chores done by heat 3, only just got them finished tonight.

Agree with that but am wondering how much is due to the fact they are getting on with it, never seen riders up at tapes so soon after the previous race, except when the weather is threatening. The racing isn't great but there have been a couple of decent wheel to wheel duels.

Kurtz got his comeuppance there, probably cost his team a chance of nicking any points.

None of us enjoy endless restarts but this ref is being far too lax, Kurtz clearly gained a big advantage in ht5, should have been pulled back.

Milik did get whatever it was back, saw him riding back to the pits carrying it, was less than a foot long whatever it was.

Yes but it's good that they are showing the rest, beggars can't be choosers. Glad Lambert has got back to winning ways, has a chance of a rostrum in this championship I think.

I'm hoping for same, it's likely someone will stick one up some time during the day, I'm hoping willstaxi is about.

So a nice even spread on the gates, that's refreshing.

Early days and the stoppages haven't helped, track looks better than it has for quite a while, here's hoping it will produce.

Was thinking similar, that had to be the most disjointed podium trio of recent years, Zagar just wanted it over with I think.
