Looks like Dorna swooped in and took that guy's video out so no one can see how damn dangerous that track is.

The footage is on the official WSBK youtube channel , I seen it last night .....what a terrible design barrier , that is certainly another track setup for cars over bikes .

Sad news today, Noryuki Haga's son Ryota lost his life in a 600 race in Japan. Only 21 years old. RIP!

Toprak was so lucky to walk (more or less) away from this today! Why the hell is there a wall there? No Airfence? Sorry, terrible audio on this, sombody's cell phone grab from a TV.

I watched that free practice it was sickening Topraks crash couldnt believe he got up and walked..

Toprak ,Johnny Rea and Dominque Aegerter all out because of injury this weekend, could be a a good chance for others to get podiums this weekend

Really Hate seeing championships decided like this.

Counter to this^; after Luca Salvadori passed away following his accident in Germany the other day, his closest competition announced that they were withdrawing to allow him to be crowned champion posthumously! Class!

Rival team makes remarkable gesture to honour Luca Salvadori

I need to start watching BSB more because I didn't realize they barely use any rider aids. I like seeing the riders showcase their skills more. Also I think BMW may be thinking about going to motogp and Maybe Toprak with get the seat

That's my speculation from day 1 when he went from Yamaha to BMW. What do you think that Guintoli en Bradley Smith are doin right now?

I feel bad for Toprak and Rea. Toprak has been on another level all season, easily the best rider now the Championship is in question for him. As they say you gotta be in it to win it. Rea, has been on the box one time this year and I think it was a sprint race at that. Rea is having his hardest season maybe ever meanwhile the ZX10 and Lowes are doing great. I'm sure that stings a bit more to.

Petrucci's first win in WSBK! Always liked this guy! Pity I never got out the the MotoAmerica race at the Ridge to see him in person!

“I thought it could be difficult to jump on the podium but after a few laps, I understood that I had good pace.”

Petrux is on fire!

It was quite funny watching the FP sessions cause Tito Ribat (and othres) got lots of air time from the commentators and replays - usually he only gets a mention cause he's qualified like 23rd or something

Iannone had a great chance for a top 4 finish this weekend...

Danilo had stonking weekend good on him

 

[Cantab]

Iannone did a darn good job Race1 for the win he'd actually ran out of fuel and held the clutch in over the line

Toprak 2nd be interesting to see if he was fully fit or whether or did he had to hold off somewhat cause of his big crash a couple weeks back..

Sam lowes a big highside after his Duke pooed itself and dropped oil first lap - race1 restarted.

Nicolo Bulega's engine crapped itself on the restart warm up lap as well, he might be in engine allocation trouble.
