Now look at the way that Corser & JT were at it in the 2nd WSB, they both looked at "potential" opportunities, but were mature enough not to make stupid moves. And Byrne is an "ex Moto GP" rider :rolleyes:

I'm not so sure. I recorded it and watched that "move" several times and in slow motion. Not an acceptable standard of riding at that level whatever happened. JT and Bayliss in WSBK race 2 was sheer briliance, although still scary to watch. Could have been an exibition race. :)

What do I know, excerpt from www.shakey.com:

"I got a good drive on the way out of the left and went for the gap but unfortunately Leon headed for the apex a bit earlier than I’d anticipated and I hit the back of him and fell down"

Dipstick... He's in front, he can head for the apex when he wants, especially if he is defending his position. Shakey "should" of known that was coming....

At times he shows a lack of maturity for such an experienced racer...

I can't say I'm a shakey fan; he's a thoughtless at times I think, a bit too "playboy". There was never going to be any room, I think shakey was kinda hoping he'd barge leon out of the way. It didnt look like he even braked, more rolled off the throttle and flicked it over hopeing for the best.

Ah well

I hope leon can start his BSB charge this time out at oulton, so far he;s had a bit of trouble
