Chas Davies unlucky to go down. Micky Van Der Mark and Ten Kate were pretty rapid in the Honda. When Sykes goes backwards, he really can't stop

Sykes is carrying on from last year is he pushing that hard early on were is tyres r shot half race? Johnny n the kwak look like 1 ,made for each other. Honda surprised me with speed

I don't think it's a tyres issue anymore with Sykes. He was unfortunate that Giuliano touched him in the second race, knocking him out of his rythmn. I think he has a total mental block - once he slips down the rankings, he can't make the places back up. My DA would contend that Sykes can't or doesn't like scrapping for positions and is only good with a clear track in front of him.

Looking forward to this weekend, one of the best tracks in the WSBK series.
Lets hope JR can add to his 7 wins here so far. :laughing:
I can't help thinking the Ducati's will be hard to stay with round here though.

Race of the season so far. Gutted to see magic Mike lose it, but great to see Rea win a proper battle.

Impressive ride from Chaz in race 1 at Imola, JR managing to stay calm after a mistake and hold off Sykes.
Roll on R2 tomorrow, although again the Dukes are looking strong here with Giugliano going well also.
