The two coming into the corner appear completely oblivious to the fact there's a guy on the deck tangled up with his bike, neither seem to be making any effort to go wide to avoid him.

Saying that if they did they'd probably end up in the highside incident just round the corner, it's a bit like it's a knockout

He'd literally just done it - I'm number 12 in that shot and I was right next to him when it happened! I don't really know what happened to him but he had moved over to block me coming up the inside on the brakes so I went to go around him, next thing I know he's got a wobble and he's into the hairpin!

Everyone just coming up there were way late on the brakes on the inside trying the outbrake thing as well! It must have been hilarious to watch!

Looks like he was gonna jump on the back or drag the rider off

Thanks.

Here's the complete set of Race 2 pics plus the movie clip. You'll need Quicktime player for that I'm afraid.

video clip was great, watching everyone pouring into that hairpin!!

How no-one went down on that lap (presumably the first) was impressive

Video clip is brilliant. Bikes looks bloody fast don't they

Last page ... Race 3 plus a movie from the grandstand near the Mountain.

Yes, that was the start of Race 2. I missed the fun and games at start of Race 1 because we were up at Hall Bends.

You could almost sense the intense concentration of everyone trying to get round that hairpin together without colliding!
