With all the hubbub about GP it seems Tom Sykes winning the SBK championship in race 1 was overlooked.

Both races were snoozers except the last 2 laps of race 1.

I think Eugene Laverty made the best, and most humiliating, pass on Melandri I have ever seen in Jerez's final corner, one lap after Melandri roughed him up with a pretty marginal move.

Lorenzo would never make it in that series. Marquez, on the other hand, would be right at home.

Check it out if you get a chance.

+1 as well. Laverty's pass was fantastic! You know he had to be pissed about Melandri's pass, which was very borderline IMO. He would have forced a crash had there been gravel instead of pavement outside the curbing.

2014 might could be a good year for Honda if they get off their butts, and they are due.  Do you suppose they watch the sales numbers for everyone.  Between last year & this year did Kawasaki enjoy any better sales on the ZX10?

It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level.  Everything else is just fluff.
