  1. Just got my marshal station allocation for Donny. If you are passing Coppice (middle), give me a wave :D I have a feeling it’s going to be a busy weekend :joy: Andy

  2. Just looked at the schedule on the Dorna WSBK app and the BMW 900R and Kawasaki Superteens don’t appear. Got this from the MSV web site. Andy

  5. Long old weekend for you! Enjoy and if you manage to pick up any souvenirs by way of crashed ducati bikes (Im looking at you Sam Lowes #22 ) pass them my way for my mantelpiece pls :)
     
  6. We’ll be ‘on station’ at 8am, got a bit of set-up preparation each morning, probably scoop practice, Stuart’s daily briefing needs to be disseminated and then there’s track inspection before the start of the proceedings for the day. Depending on red flags/safety cars, hopefully we’ll be in the bar by 6:45pm :D Andy

  8. Excellent spot for a high speed off. Ask me how I know… :D
     
  9. They have the superpole race on eurosport sunday morning then its blanket tennis coverage, yawn (did i mention how much i hate tennis?).

  10. It’s a real sign of the times that WSBK isn’t even on telly now… I bet the weekend attendance will be sub 30k

  11. To be fair its up against Wimbledons mens final and tour de france. Its always going to take a back seat there.
     
  12. Wondering if @Android853sp is on first name terms with Iannone yet....

  16. I was going to say the same.
    Eurosport has live coverage of the superpole race in the morning, then a days highlights programme in the evening. Sat and Sunday.
    The live coverage of the main event has been dropped. (Unless I missed something)

  17. Anything they can’t squeeze onto Eurosport 1 or 2 goes to their streaming channels these days.
