One trick pony. The Kawasaki does not work with the SC0. Shakey still has to finish ahead of Leon in 1st, 2nd or 3rd though. Andy
Shakey all the way for me, self-made man, total hero, no race-connected family, no monied family, mum and dad didn't even have a car. Top man.
They’ve said technical. Even shakey said it spooked him as looked like fluid on track or something. Broken ankle
What a shitty way to lose a title fight for sure, dunno but that bike was going straight on and he had to jump off the fkr, after the clutch hassles he had in race 2 you gotta ask WTF were the mechanics up to?
You could see the black line appear when he just stamped on the rear brake. When that failed, abort and jump
Stalker is another who lost a championship on a technical blowup. When you read his book you get an insight into what that does to your head.
I think the current thought is that his front brake failed, so he jumped on the rear (he doesn’t use the rear ever) and obviously that did fuck all so he decided to bail out
LH said no front brake. Credit to him for congratulating Shakey at the end, supported by his dad, with what he thinks is a broken ankle. Credit and a lot of respect.
Just watched it. Wow and ouch! Not sure why Shakey slowed so much, nearly taken by Ray on the line and could have cost him the title possibly. Haslam ever the pro when he was interviewed but he looked totally dejected. Said no front brake so bailed...isn’t that the second time this year?!
Maybe his old man doesn’t want to see him win anything, hence why he moved him on in every class as son as he got good and could compete for a title..... .....joke before I get sued!
