Michael Rutter may have a slightly different slant on it!!But yes,AWESOME ride.Harris was gutted.9 second in 4 laps,2.5 seconds in the last lap,he shouldn't really have lost that,should he?

I can't help feeling that harris didn't know that he was closing that quick on the last lap, maybe he had backed off a bit, thinkink it was safe to. would be interesting to see the lap times of the last few laps.
Good race nevertheless.

He knew - he just didn't have an answer. I've never seen Haslam ride so well. Just look how he dropped Gregorio.

Croft in August........that'll be a fleece, waterproofs and a flask of Hot choccy needed then:o

Luckily the racing made it worth going. Got home and the central heating had to go on:eek: We'd had a power cut as well but luckily after the ITVs coverage. It's grim oop North!

Anyone else see Chris Walker wandering around? We spotted ya Guido and Ang & Jnr Bumped into to you later.

Nice to witness Leons Ist BSB win. Well done Sean Emmett as well.

Watch that last laps again. I think the back marker took more out of Harris than he knew. Help Haslam no end.

Harris quote." i had 2 1/2 seconds on the pit board last lap, i thought id got it...........then what do i hear behind me, a bloody ducati!"
