2019 WSBK

First round of 2019 WSBK is this weekend at Phillip Island.

Great to see the brand new Ducati V4 do the business. I know it’s very early days but it looks like we’re in for a good season!

Also nice to see it's not going to be the Johnny Rhea show again. It was cool seeing his domination, but frankly things got pretty boring.

My thoughts as well.

Just one q, why did Chaz Davies started way back in both races?

I didn't see the quali, and didn't follow the practice sessions. Last year he was one of very few that could challenge Rea.

Would also be nice to see the Yamahas up in the mix.

Chaz just didn’t qualify well. Looks like he’s going to be showed up by Bautista.

Yamaha’s did well but they’re still last years bikes.

I almost signed up for WSBK VideoPass just to watch 19 Bautista in his debut WSBK races, then saw you only get the Sundsy race live. *shakes fist disapprovingly*

Due to MotoGP VideoPass, I'm spoiled.

Even the small clips that WSBK puts up are cut abruptly on Twitter.

Sad.

Happy to see the results from the 3 races, though!

I might give in and still sign up this season.

Pity, he is one of my favourite riders.

I am also rooting for Haslam, really happy for him to be back in WSBK.

Just in case anyone has missed it, Alvaro has now won 6 from 6 and most of them by some margin! Go you good thing.
