I feel sorry for him. I really wanted Tommy to win. When I saw him start to make the move in race 2, I thought straight away it was from a long, long way back. He just couldn't get it stopped.

Still, credit to his team for getting his bike ready for the next race, clearly the bike didn't feel as good, or his crash in race 2 was still in his head, as he didn't look quite so hot in the third race as the first two.

I'm not a massive fan of kyio, but credit where credit is due, the boy has raced damn well.

Fair play to Hill for wanting to go out and do the business, but he lost the Championship through his own mistake. He didnt need to make that pass in such a manner, and had executed the same move on that corner on previous laps without incident. He went in too hot, and paid the price for doing so. He lost his bottle at a time when his rivals were holding theirs. Kiyo is a cool operator and didnt put a foot wrong all afternoon, so he deserved the title.

Just because he's not a charismatic champion, doesn't mean he is any less worthy. He has won the most races this year, scored the most points and therefore deserves the Championship.

Hill needs to learn to control his nerves, as does Brookes when the pressure is on.

I know what you mean, all the people around us had gasped and said he's overcooked it

I'm not sure Kiyo is uncharismatic, he struggles with his English and appears to be a quite a shy guy really which probably doesn't help how he comes across. He has definitely had his race face on for the last couple of rounds and really wanted to win the title to try and get back into WSB. We saw him yesterday in the paddock and he was super focused but still had time for the fans. Irrespective of Hill's error I firmly think Kiyo would have won the 3 races anyway and even if Hill had managed 3 second places and tied the points he would have lost the title on count-back race wins. Kiyo was unbeatable today, totally and utterly unbeatable. Would love to see him succeed in WSB as on his day (admittedly he has a fair few off days) he is a class act.
