Just watched and enjoyed the coverage on MotorsTV via Sat.

Needless to say I was routing for Eric and the Ducati. He might have sneaked it as well if Maladin wasnt so strong.
Zemke had a great and calculating ride - one to watch for the future I think.

Yates was well out of order....OK the backmarker should have been more careful but Yates actions were unforgivable and I think the penalty should be higher - like a next race ban !!!

Great seeing Daytona again as a few years ago while on holiday there I managed to drag my wife in one rainy day for a tour of the track....well - it was dry 30 minutes later.

The banking is BEYOND BELIEF.....you simply cannot walk up it !!!! It is soooo steep towards the top that you have to use your hands as well......and looking down from the top is 'scarey' nevermind riding it !!!

Respect.
