Kiyonari crashed at restart of 1st race, out for day but back next round apparently. Rutter made hay but will need to find some more speed for Oulton.

And in WSBK Corser won from CV and Kagayama in race one - Abe had a great race but had a front end tuck while fighting for second. Max had a big highside and hurt his wrist.
In the 2nd race Corser won from CV and Chris Walker on the Kawasaki... |

What happened to Regis? All I got on the coverage was that he crashed in morning warm up and went to the local hospital for MRI scans.

Regis was knocked out for several minutes after the crash and suffered concussion. The MRI scans revealed no further injuries, but he was advised not to take take part in the races. This is normal for riders who have been concussed.
From crash.net "I am fine but now I just need a few days to recover for Monza. It's a track I like, we are at home and Ducati is always very fast," declared Laconi. "This was a very big crash and I feel very lucky because I could easily have broken something and been out of action for some time. I am obviously disappointed because I wanted to take part in the second race, but I did receive a big bang on the head and was unconscious for a few minutes so the doctors said it was better that I didn't." |

Too right Gom, the are struggling everywhere right now arent they.
Onl people really doing any good are Lavilla in BSB which is a luh as he is a sub rider and Hodson in AMA wich also is a laigh coz he is in a completeolydifferent environment! Interesting also to note tat apparently the GP team were usig a new clutch/downsift gizmo in Jerez but didnt use it in the race! The commentators said tat perhaps rider power came into it and Loris and Charl said we are not riding it with that doofus system fitted. Do tey not learn! Suzuki have put themselves back 3 years doin similar things ad Ducati were messing wih this stuff last year, leave it alone!! |
