Superb! Thanks for posting that Tony. 5th is enough - no point is crashing. The man has ridden like a champion all season - both he & Ducati have deserved this win.

And finishes the round with a champion's win from the front!

Congratulations to the little fella

It could have been a close run thing, Barros was closing fast. It was a shame to see Pitt not quite make the podium and I can't believe that Yamaha nearly didn't give him the job this year! If they keep him next year and give him some testing etc and he'll be up there I reckon. Especially with the new R1 being released, it's supposedly got more power (obviously) but in the midrange, and new geometry. Haga on it will be good too

Bayliss, 11 wins for the season so far - what a legend.

Lets all have a minutes silence!

Some great quotes from Bayliss:

"I told the boys it was death or dishonour" (about the second race)

Upon being asked if he was going to have a beer or two to celebrate - "Couldn't eat a thing but I'll have a few beers for sure"



PS - Kevin Curtain didn't wrap up the championship but heads into the final race with an 18 point lead. Another Aussie winning the WSS championship?

I wouldn't be any other nationality for quids!

Good on him, Bayliss has rung that old V twins neck this year. No one else has run with him consistently.

Last race for PFC in Italy, nice tribute from MCNs Ginger whinger in the Eurosport studio.

Is it just me, or does TB REALLY not like the guy who interviews him after races? He always looks like he's about to tw*t him one and always argues with him!

Well done to Troy though - top riding. Anyone know what his leathers/lid colour scheme was about? Was it a Xerox thing?

3 wsb titles in 4 years, with 3 different riders, against 1000cc opposition,.............god it is a **** bike, lets have a new model!

....and what makes it even more amazing is its clearly a slower bike than the inl4's, god knows Whitham says so 4-5 times a race!

well done Troy, win again next year!

It's a tribute to the Rainbow Jersey worn by the cycling world champion (TB is a HUGE cycling fanatic):
