We always debate whether we should fit another new rear for the last race and inevitably decide not to, it's always touch and go whether the rear will do the distance
See that's a weekend racing - that, I can understand but 14 laps and a tyre needs replacing I don't buy - BSB supersport or not. Maybe they get a good tyre allocation since it is the title sponsor?
