I do try Indeed, it was a bit like Rocky really.

Which bit are you "yeah of coursing?"

Why? Just because the "official" announcement is tomorrow, that doesn't mean the news is under embargo until then. Just using it as excuse to have a little swipe I guess.

ooh the internet police are going to be all over this being in the wrong section! Congratulations to the Wildcards though. I guess Ward and Pedersen were nailed on if they wanted it, not convinced by Lindgren and Harris to be honest, but hey ho....

Cool! Held onto a podium finish! Cheers TNT, great fun mate, well done!

I tend to agree with Alan, as much as I will enjoy watching Darcy and tonight (as long as he stays safe!) objectively I think that Darcy has had a go this year, why not give someone else a try?

Yeah, but it depends whether I elect to try to defend my position and play it safe and risk getting pipped by someone with some guts, or I go for the big blast round the boards which could all end in tears!

Looks like my chances of a podium finish are slipping away, need a big last round!

You might want to confirm which one.

Sorely tempted to try and fit Harris in on 2 points. He should be capable of making a mockery of that, but on his recent form it kinda feels like 2 points is a bit of a gamble.....May have to swap him for AJ who although he's been on fire recently, could fall well short of his predicted 13 points. Decisions decisions.....

They have up live somewhere. Whether it's a mortgage or rent they still have to come up with the money at the end of the month. Also I never said anything about it being the first consideration, don't put words in my mouth please.

Yeah, they love living on the streets.

I just can't see how a British rider in next years series can be justified. Harris is the best British rider and he's just not good enough. I see people are mention giving Ben Barker a go. With all due respect, the fact we're even considering Barker shows how low the standard is.

I can't see how they could justify having a British rider in the series next year. Harris is the best we've got and sadly the best we've got simply isn't good enough.

What a race! Go Darky!!!

I don't agree with that perfectly rational suggestion at all. I think he should be publicly flogged, then burnt at the stake.

Great race to end a great GP

It was weird. In real time I thought it was Holder's fault, but on the replay you could see it was nothing to with him, just Sayfutdinov and Lindback arrived at the same place at the same time. Tough call, but on balance I think the ref got it right.

No, it's Stevie Wonder I think.

Horrendous decision. Thought Emil had stopped coming into the bends dangerously like that. Clearly not.

Steve, you can't just go and expunge all of Eddie's points from this year based on the fact he might have been on illegal machinery. There is only evidence for him being on illegal machinery in one meeting, so any adjustments can only be made for the one meeting where he has been proved to have cheated. It doesn't matter what you, I or anyone else may suspect about other meetings he's ridden in, without concrete evidence you simply can't just start arbitrarily changing results.
