Definitely didn't play out like expected with how everyone finished or didn't finish in the races.

I wonder why Spies decide to go to MotoGP next year instead of doing more WSBK? I figured he would try to get some more international wins under his belt, get some more experience and then go play with the really, really big boys. But we shall see.

Too bad Max Biaggi finished fourth, but ain't bad for an old fart on a brand new bike.

BMW suck ass!!! Haha.

you could really see his age peeking through at times but then again hes not taking so many crazy chances. It'll be real interesting to see how he finishes next year with the bike and team sorted.

Well from what I can gather, WSBK is for those who retired from GP... Since Ben seems to be on the up n up, why not compete at the highest level? LOL

I haven't watched the races from yesterday yet or the MotoGP race but have all 3 of them DVR'd but couldn't resist this thread regardless.

Congrats to Ben and Yamaha !!
