WorldSBK Assen - Motul Dutch Round - April 20-22, 2018

We have MotoGP, MotoAmerica and WSBK this weekend, so there's a lot to keep track of, so I don't expect this thread to be too lively.

But holy shit. Someone get Jake Gagne a pair of Tech-Air leathers. Did y'all see his crash today? I haven't seen anything that reports otherwise, so I think he's completely okay. It looked nasty though. Not sure if the video is free or if you need the pass, but the link is below.

Great minds. You need a lesson in racing thread titles though

 

Better yet, Rinaldi is fastest of the Ducatis after 3 practices. Cue the Melandri bench talks...

 

Nahhh, not yet. Until Ducati puts a bike underneath him that DOESN'T try to kill him in every session, he gets a pass.

 

That’s his personal setup. You gotta sacrifice some stability if you want to turn a certain way.

 

I hope Jake is ok and returns soon. I noticed he was not in today's race so I searched out why and saw the video. Nasty looking get off.

 

Lowes on the pole. I definitely didn’t see that one coming.

 

Wasted opportunity by Lowes.

Hey, it looks like savadori is moving forward, let's give him some screen time.....and nevermind.

 

Overall a good race. Seems like Sykes only needed an extra lap or two to get on the box.

 

That bike is in need of some glass mat and resin.

 

Rea rode a very smart race and had enough at the end.

 

Almost looked like he was sandbagging to me. Once he pulled the pin he was GONE.

 

Think he was saving as much tire as he could for the end.

 

Alex Lowes's brollie girl. *Mic drop

 

Either post a pic of her...or pick up your mic

Alex Lowes, 8 laps to go....bike drop

 

The Supersport race was downright savage!

 

Krummacker(sp?) would have walked away from it if he hadn't had to start from the back.

 

SS race was pretty awesome!

 

The only race all weekend that was exciting.
