    Two of the best races I have seen in YEARS! And in race 2 Johnny Rea is such a bitch rider. He is flat out dangerous with his passes and most of his contacts look intentional. I hope Melandri T bones him off the track next race!

    I tell ya though it is good ( I think ) to see a little aggression going on. That's what I liked about Simoncelli. He took chances, and that's what it looked like Rea was doing. I don't think it was intentional though.

    Re: WSBK ( spoiler )

    Im sure it wasnt intentional but LH earned that podium spot (as well as MM). rea got greedy and took that away from them. He didnt deserve that win

    however i do like to see a villan on the track. Sic was the villan in my eyes before he was killed

    yeah the beemers did work pretty hard. Dang villains! This is Marco on super bike planet,
    "Then Leon was hit and he crashed. His bike hit me and I crashed too. I feel sorry for both of us but that's racing. We now have to keep our heads up high and look forward to Salt Lake City where we hope to be fighting for wins again."

    Then Leon
    "Right now I just want to forget race 2. I feel a bit frustrated because I was going for my first win for BMW Motorrad - at my home round, but we were denied that well deserved victory. The crash was not my fault at all... Anyway, that's racing, and we're now looking forward to the next round. "


    They both seem to be handling it pretty well. That's good to hear.

    Watching race 1, I kept thinking about Days of Thunder... "In order to WIN the race, you have to FINISH the race!

    Amazing racing going on... beats the hell out of a 200mph parade any day!

    Sucks that both beamers got taken out on the last corner, but Rae wanted it more.

    GREAT races! But, yeah, after rewinding the last corner a couple times, it was definately Rea's fault, and he should be penalized by pulling his win, or back of the grid penalty for both Miller races.

    Sorry, I like Hodgeson and all, but he's full of shit. Notice he's sticking up for both Limeys, and capping on Melandri. Yes, Melandri wasn't going to make the pass, but he didn't screw anyone up like Rea. I like Rea too, but, he lunged in and hit Haslam so hard he knocked him all the way across the track into Melandri. That's Msomehow Melandri's fault? Bullshit. I'm sure all 3 of the other riders will say it's Rea's fault. Stoopid..... Haslam - - Rea
