    I'm thinking Lowes rear tire did it

    Looked like the line on that side got ripped off as someone posted already- my guess is that it was Lowes' rear tire that did it.

    Chaz with the door blue. Fought they the grid from 9th and wins by 4secs. The Duke of Imola?

    Nicky is way better than a 12th place. The honda is a pos. He would have been great on the duc

    The engineering and tooling is already done, why not produce the RCV213V-S in homologated volume?

    Predictable races- I hope Rea doesn't go into finishing 2nd for as long as his lead is comfortable like he did last year.
    Huge spoiler alert- Sykes may be strong next round at Donnington.

    Some of them were absolutely burning the tire off the rear going over the left hander before acqua minerale. Chaz owned everyone this weekend but it was cool to see Fores up there as a privateer team. Honda.... smh.

    Fores on a privateer team? His team is another factory team. He has everything Chaz and Marco has, ie parts, engineers .....

    Sykes was lighting up that rear on every lap- I don't think there's another rider who's harder on the tires than him in that paddock.

    Which is why he usually goes backwards as the race goes on.

    Holy shit. How many red flags can you have during one SS race. WTF Rolfo :confused:

    It was all about Chaz this weekend. The guy just didn't seem to make any mistakes. Rea had nothing and that's saying something. He won't be able to just sit back if Chaz keeps this form. It was almost bad for Rea in R2. Rea has almost a 3 race lead but the season is long and shaping up to have some great racing between those two.

    That track in race 2 was shit.

    Th
    The Duc is literally Taylor made for that style of track. If Chaz didn't win then it'd be a big deal otherwise, Rea is gonna wax that a$$ business as usual

    Meh...

    Taylor made or not he had to ride it. Rea didn't back down and settle, that was clear to see. Chaz didn't just beat the field, he gave them a beat down. No one could touch his pace.

    If Chaz keeps this form and can not have shit luck(is that possible for Ducati) then we're in for some great racing for the rest of the year.

    Too bad there isn't any Gixxer to mix it up at the front.

    What type of track is that Taylor made to? Just curious.
    Does that mean the other tracks are Taylor made to the kawi?

    What about last year when Chaz dominated in several different tracks?

    I did not know that. I guess the exhaust should have been a clue.
