Great start to the season. Both great races. Checa was sure on a mission that 2nd race, good for him.

[ronaldo9]

It's amazing how Spies won straight away on the Yamaha and Toseland and Crutchlow barely rounding out the top ten. Unless everyone just stepped it up this year. Gonna be a dog fight to the end. No cake walk for Haga. And who said the Kawi was a turd? Sykes and Vermeulen both looking good on the Kawi or maybe its just their amazing riding ability. Roger Lee Hayden on the other hand has a lot of ground to make up. He finished race 1 1:11 behind the winner and race 2 1:07 back .

a bunch of us got together and watched this.... we kept yelling....CHECA!!!!!!!

great racing , those last two laps were outstanding

[SPL170db]

Did anyone tally up a list of Toseland excuses and complaints?

[FDNYDANO18]

The comentator Steve Martin, former WSBK rider, says the difference WAS Spies.

Toseland is a great rider but he won on years that the talent pool was more like a puddle and he had the best ride....

ps: Ben Spies (14 wins) has just about as many WSBK wins in one Season as Toseland (16 wins in 7 seasons) does for his entire time in WSBK .

Interesting point Dano!

Great races. Loved seeing Checa take race 2.
