2016 WSBK Phillip Island

Is that the fine for breaking into the zoo?

 

Hey thanks for this thread, couple of questions

1. I have bein on verizon, is that app free to watch shows?
2. Wsb pass can you watch it on a pc and tAblet

Tv coverage sucks this year, im going to buy the pass if i need to

 

Crash.net interview said bad front tire.

 

His last lap was a 35.6. It must have been horrible.

 

I Got BeIn added to my cable provider, but I didn't see were race 1 was going to be televised. Now they do shoe race 2 on the schedule
for today, but nothing about race 1 so I missed it damit,. Also will wss be televised at all this year?

 

His front tire looks hammered:

Yeah he dropped like a rock at the end of the race... was running top 5 for a while!

So much for the Honda being such a turd

 

Good race... Looked really promising for Nicky the first 3/4 of the race. The 8 bike freight train was cool too. Sucks he dropped off at the end like that. Hopefully the second race goes a little better

 

For whatever reason on my channel guide it was showing as "to be announced" or something along those lines, but i knew beforehand what the time slot was.

 

I'm gonna wear out the BeIN app. Great news for racing.

 

The Honda isn't that slow and Nicky isn't that fast.......

 

PI is generally an anomaly track, so I don't think anyone can make a judgement after race one of round one about Nicky or the Honda. Remember, Laverty put the GSXR-1000 on the top step at PI a couple of years ago and we quickly saw how little that bike was capable in the following rounds.

 

Yeah, but there were two bikes that looked good at PI last year and those two bikes/riders were #1 and 2 at the end of the season, Rea and Chaz.

 

Not a knock on Nicky he's just towards the end of his career and seeing first hand the riders in wsbk are damn good.

 

It's 1 race in a long series of double header weekends.....don't get too worked up

 

Just re-watched it, good race from start to finish. It's impossible not to like VDM's riding style and he's strong at PI, I'm rooting for him to take the win in race 2.

 

He's probably going to need a little time to adjust to a SB after being on a motogp bike and that bridgestone front tire for so long. Looks like he destroyed that pirelli front.

 

I'm sure he'll get a win this year
