Should be an interesting round, Toseland allready aiming at a double victory (talk about confidence) and Bayliss and co desperately trying to close his gap in the championship, should be good. Westy back in WSS, looking more and more likely that he'll be there in 08.
Tips:
WSBK1:
1. Bayliss
2. Haga
3. Toseland
WSBK2:
1. Toseland
2. Rolfo
3. Bayliss
WSS:
1. Chapentier
2. West
3. Parkes
( Westy has to learn another track though ;) )
Bring it on!

Are the BSB Virgin Media bikes running as wildcards like last year? (They run on Pirelli's)
I'm always going to pick Nitro Nori as i'm hoping he will take out the championship this year. :D after Monza. How much support will Corser give him as his own chances diminish I wonder.
Race1
Haga
Toseland
Lanzi
Bayliss
Biaggi
Race2
Haga
Bayliss
Toseland
Biaggi
Xaus (If he doesn't fall off)

It was certainly an interesting round. The Superbike race was quite good for the lead, if not just because wet conditions make me soo nervous for the riders because things can turn pear-shaped so quickly. Wests ride was superb though he had a bit of luck with his near get-offs at the first turn and I was gutte for Broc (again :( ) who continues to have no luck at all.
It was a shame the second Superbike race was cancelled. Perhaps they should move the Silverstone round next year so that it is run during Summer and not Winter. ;) :laugh:

The weather was not great, but I've seen as bad at races before. I've been getting sunburnt at the last few British Superbike rounds, so I guess Toseland et al are just unlucky! ;)

I was at Phillip Island when it got rained out a few years ago and it wasn't particularly fun. Just goes to show that it came happen anywhere, just need the misfortune of a storm to hit at the wrong time.

That's nothing, there was one BSB round at Knockhill where I got soaked to the skin during race 1 in the morning then sunburnt during race 2 in the afternoon!
WSBK at Silverstone just seems to bring out the worst weather for some reason.

Phillip Island is about the only place I ever go where I can freeze all day, but still get sunburnt! :)
Silverstone is good for a bit of aquaplaning for some reason.

Amazing that Toseland did 20 laps with no cooling system. Even in the rain and cold, it says a lot about the CBR1000RR...
