wow wasnt the supersports 600 race at brands a crazy one ????
first Chambon crashed very heavily and the red flags came out and then Jamie Whitam crashed in what was one of the scariest accidents I have ever seen and I was really concerned for his health , then after the next start Foret had a big one as well all of these crashes brought out the red flags and finally after many delays the race was run and won by Fujiwara , but what an amazing race. does anybody know anything on Jamie's condition ???? the commentators claimed he may have a broken arm or collar bone ?? I hope he gets well soon because he is awesome to watch. as for the supersports series what an awesome class it is , I always enjoy watching the races and think that it is just as good as the superbikes themselves, the guys are crazy sometimes but the racing is always close and exciting. lets hope everyone can be on track for the next event. GO Karl Muggeridge !!!!!! |

That was an amazing race. How long did the whole thing last, wel over 2 hours i think.
Fabian Foret, what is his deal. All the looking over the shoulder finally caught up with him, then on the first lap of the restart he did it again in the same spot. Was an awesome race, as usual. |

foret should not have even been in the restart.... that is not fair to other riders that he stops a race through his own dumbness and can still walk away with 20 championship points..... thats not fair to fujiwara, pitt and especially chambon - mate, i reckon it sucks

Jamie had a broken elbow and has had surgery on it, looked very bad for a while,so glad he's ok.
As for the race,fantastic,none of the riders were bothered about the aggregate positions they all just wanted to be in front,brill race. |

Yeah I love those races as well, they just want to give it all that it can.
Very fun to watch, allthough those crashes looked quite mean! |

Whit is ok spoke to him and Andrea on Monday, they operated on Monday morning and luckily the damage was not as bad as what they first thought. Shoke him up a bit. I was more worried about Andrea and the baby that poor thing! All are ok though - just likes to scare us all once in a while!
