Nori will get off the line like a bat out of hell, and then his race pace will be close to (+/-) or the same as The Ben's. His form has been great lately -- back to what he looked like at the beginning of the seasons. I'm excited. [thumbsup] Nori's interview in the other thread is good too.

i'm just stoked on the 10th pole and the half second crushing he put on everyone.. on yet another track he'd never seen before thursday.

Nori is right behind Ben on the grid and is usually a good starter. However it shakes out it will be exciting.

IMO... fabrizio doesn't have a chance in hell of a championship this year, and even though Nori says it's got to be him that wins or loses... fabrizio would be wise to 'play the corporate game'. I agree generally about the team orders, but I'm not sure how to have it apply to Superpole. He should let Nori by at the first opportunity during the race (assuming Nori wants to go by and doesn't want a tow from Fabio), but I think he should let it all hang out for Superpole. The farther up the order Douchebrizio lands, the more he can help Nori. Either way, it's why they need to put their heads together and come up with a team race strategy. I guess I'd be more concerned if Nori wasn't such a rocket off the line.

It's too bad Ben had problems in race 2. It would have been great to see the two of them slugging it out.

Do they use race wins as the tie-breaker? Anyone wanna bet that's he'll double? A $25 donation says that he won't take the title.

Is there another camera angle that shows it better? I can't believe Spies got back past Haga. I watched it several times in slow-mo, and it was f'n incredible. Title: Re: 2009 World Superbike Round 13 - Magny-Cours (Race 2 Spoilers) Post by: zooom on October 07, 2009, 05:10:17 AM all I can say....Haga says they go back to Bologna for to get more speed for Portamaio and some fettuccini!
should Haga win the championship....what kind of antics you think he'll have for celebration? |
