  1. Watching WSBK (no spoilers from me or anyone please) and thinking I wonder if he wins if will Bautista take no1 plate.

    Then made me think: it should be compelled, if you win a title, to wear the no1 plate the following year if you race in the same series again. So, here’s a poll.

  2. Individual choice isn’t it.

    I’d run it, you’ve worked for it afterall but each to their own. Some say it’s unlucky
     
  3. Let them know who's boss i say, but also a target on your back for the entire field to have ago at you.
     
  4. The days of sporting the Number 1 plate are long over for the majority as your number is marketable. It’s up to each individual rider to decide what number he sports on his board.
     
  5. Which is why it should be mandated. One of the conditions of entering is agreement, if defending, run No1

  6. Don’t see why it should be mandated to wear the No1 plate, hence I’d vote not for it to be thus.

    It’s precious by the way. ;)
     
  7. Yeah o know but I can’t change it ;) F*cking auto correct deciding what I want to say. Again.
     
  8. Gets on my wick all and everyone having their so called lucky numbers. there was a time that you were allocated the number based on the previous seasons results. Wasn’t Barry Sheene the first to start this malarkey.
    All about money now sadly.

  9. Not worth thinking about as it's irrelevant.
