rennie Posted July 10, 2023 Author Share Posted July 10, 2023 There was some good racing this weekend! quite a few last lap battles! BSB is probably the best to watch over WSBK and MotoGP at the moment! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 Awesome bit of racing this weekend! Some not so great results and some unexpected results too! Bridewell and Irwin seem to be pushing their luck on those Ducati's! Bad start from vickers but a good finish in the end and Hicky's luck is just getting worse! 12 hours ago, rennie said: BSB is probably the best to watch over WSBK and MotoGP at the moment!

I am bored of WSBK as there is no competition Granted if Bridewell and Irwin get out front they usually stay there but its still a challenge for them to hold the rest off!

Stu Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 Ohallaran should have had a penalty for that move on Jackson! Nudged him off the track and dropped him back to 6th so he could feed his ego and get on the podium! He is getting far too dangerous just recently but then crys if someone does the same to him 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's all on Eurosport Still trying to get my head around TNT instead of BTsport and what's on where Bsb series is still going well, keeps as many of the multiple manufacturers series going. Think the bmw cup is an interesting choice but teams iand individuals will get better but might need abit of a looking over for next year to tighten it up anyway? yea jackson did a good job with a unfavoured bike. Yes he has the right to feelmiffed about it but as some might say thats racing . was not the first time and definitely not the last well see that move done at that corner, recent memory was when sykes got proper duffed up at that corner that sent him to the grassed part and almost threw him off by might have been haslam? Not many complained about that. not covering for him but the ohally incident yep it was rough and out of desperation to keep with the championship leaders due to his lack of top places recently over a local lad with low title comprehension, but to feed his ego? Not sure on that one. Did you miss the supersport ones at the right just after the start / finish line... twice they were dodgy, fast and lead to actual crashes that came with a massive repair bill. Eurosport isn't perfect: one bug bare id prefer if they do multiple screen do it at different battles / other ends of the racing, not the wags or team members while the racings on or then they have to do another replay of an interesting part that you missed because they were to busy showing someone biting nails or covering their face. but better than some others attempt at cost to coverage, it doesn't cover motopg but i found that abit boring with annoying like football premier donnas ( to the point of contemplating to go out for a ride in the downpour or do i wash the bike in ther rain? Level of boredom) but has the 24hr racing like bo dor so plenty of racing i can watch in portions i can live with that. I find btsport bit to costly for my liking and tnt is just scandalous!!

rennie Posted August 31, 2023 Author Share Posted August 31, 2023 We had BTsport as part of our ridiculously expensive Virgin package! So far it hasn't gone up for TNT, but I bet it does soon! In which case we'll probably sack it off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RideWithStyles Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 (edited) your paying twice thats why, virgin for the internet then bt for a sport subscription, if you wanted bt sport the only cheap way was to have bt internet as you supplier as its included. i would be grudgingly go to bt even if they were the last ever supplier in the uk, then then ill be keeping an very close eye out for their evil scheming ways!! Could already have??? I looked a month ago..£40-50PM!!! I pay less than that for full year of eurosport even then i wouldn't pay that just to watch motogp.

rennie Posted September 17, 2023 Author Share Posted September 17, 2023 Bit of controversy with the safety car at the end of race 2! I feel for Tommy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 I have been reading the comments on facebook! Tommy excessively tried to slow the pack down and almost caused a huge pile up! People was saying that the lead rider sets the pace and he had to slow otherwise he would have overtaken the pace car! if that was the case he wasn't doing a good job to set the pace was he! I think the penalty was a tough one though and should have maybe been dropped 3 places on the grid for race 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 I think this video highlights how bad it actually was https://www.facebook.com/100064616116828/posts/pfbid035jSrE7RBaVnJFtgPu9YeT65dAwcFNybk2iBoLGQSs8JssVdKonu9ykF8VgNSLoNPl/?app=fbl 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old-codger Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 Tommy Bridewell was lucky he didnt cause a big pile up and got away with just a 3 second penalty, that could of been a whole lot worse. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rennie Posted September 18, 2023 Author Share Posted September 18, 2023 I think he genuinely believed he could go as slowly as he wanted! His comments/ gestures after the race were not exactly professional though! A penalty was justified! The effect on the championship standings has turned out very harshly IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Working Class Hero Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 I've lost a bit of respect for Tommy after this weekend. The hand gestures to the crowd and the stewards and making it personal with Glenn now. I'm not really a big fan of either of them, but I hope Glenn goes on to win it now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick the wanderer Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 Hi, l hope Tommy goes on to win it. l think his gestures were pure emotion, he wears his heart on his sleeve for sure but that's what makes him watchable. He makes me laugh. Whereas l just don't like the Irish boy there is something about him l can't put my finger on. Anyway, may the best man win! Roll on Donny Park. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RideWithStyles Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 Well for some reason eurosport hid the second race and put it on the highlights. sayin out right now I don't have a favourite rider or team, i just like the racing and seeing what makes each one tick or drags along. the safety car release, within the rules but very much smudged and . I know they were very much bunched before the back straight to try and keep within drafting distance. Anyway its done now and keeps it very close, almost as if it was planned . Roll on the next race . talking about professionalism. Mr Higgs was viewed on tv at cadwell park on the grid/paddock lane while he was looking at the sky to see if it was gonna rain for that race-how can i say this without Stu banning me...male private time self satisfaction signs reply to a fellow person who was on the pitlane. leaving Niall filling in "Errrm im not sure what mr Higgs is indicating about" . Alistar Seely having fist ti cuffs and actually psychically punching someone multiple times with full tv coverage at Oulton previously. just ashame the taller olsen was holding the bike up at the time while in the gravel trap otherwise it would have been nearly as entertaining as the racing, got off quite likely with a few points docked.
