WSBK - results of first practise
 

Even though it's only a practise session, everyone has tested at this circuit last weekend, so it does give some clues.



Corser must be feeling pretty good after 2 years on those green slugs. Cardoso is the big surprise to me, especially on a bike that's never raced in WSBK. Toseland will have find something more, it seems. Chilli is beaten by his team mate, but still going well on a brand new bike that's had almost no testing. What's wrong with BenBoz?? Oh, dear.

It's gonna be wide open this year with all the 1000's in there.

who ever wins this title really can be called champion, its that close. would love to see the ducati winning, but also corser/walker/Haga. this is the kind of field which would really have tested Hodgson.

Yep, and look how lose those times are! A second for the first 5 and another sec drops you as low as 16th. No room for a wobble.

Where's McCoy?

Corser is NO surprise to be honest, he is the man to beat this year - even Racer magazine thinks so!

Corser deserves the title this year after putting up with Foggy for so long! even when Foggy was racing and Corser was his teammate!

And Ben Bostrom is in 28th behind McCoy on the H0nda! Should have stayed in AMA and raked in the cash? We'll see over the course of the season but maybe he doesn't have the bike that Vermuelen and Muggers have?

I would have thought I'd see Muggers ahead of Pitt - but it is ONLY the first qualiying session, superpole to go ... I can't wait!

COME ON CORSER!!!!

Ten Kate 1 and 2 in super sport as well!

Quality team!

Aussies only 5th and 7th in supersport at the moment .... come on boys!

me thinks Corser is out to prove something, there have been many years when the championship should have been his. Will be good to see Abe's weird riding style out there. Good year of racing coming up!

This is the sort of field that really would of tested the 996's, Oh no its opposition were only 750's:lol::P:lol:
