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!

Change the record you big goose!

The Ducati's would be nowhere without the extra tuning they're allowed over the IL4's so it's not a level playing field. Even with THE MAN riding it.

It's a very good road bike though, even if it is ugly

The best thing for Ducati in WSB will be the rules being changed to allow the twins to have more capacity and bring the tuning rules inline with the IL4's. Just my opinion mind ...

I think my record is a valid point......... 3 different riders n all that! when it goes to 1200 cc thatll be like going back to the 750 inl4's, so your level playing field is even less level!

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