Superbike FIM World Championship 2019

WSBK is a complete mess. They allow 500cc bikes in the Supersport 300 already and it was a complete open class last year too. Nobody gives a damn about it and only British SBK talent keep this on life support. Other than that it's Moto2/MotoGP drop-outs and Bautista is just killing everyone including the man who broke Fogarty's records.

Still curious about the suggestion Kawasaki is going to change the rules  

 

I watch because it's racing, but for excitement I watch the Supersport which is usually quite a lot more interesting. Just like MotoGP and Moto3 are a lot more spectacular than the often incredibly boring Moto2

Race one of the Supersport 300 is done and dusted and much like almost every race of last year, it was just awesome again  

 

Fight from start to finish with seven guys still fighting hard for the win in the last lap  

 

That win eventually went to Spain's Manuel Gonzalez, who beat Frenchman Hugo de Cancellis in a great fight in the last corners. Scott Deroue of the Netherlands went from 7th to 3rd in the final lap.

The first race in Assen is being delayed and delayed (and by the looks of it, cancelled)........because of snow and generally freezing weather

2. CART Nazareth 2000 (postponed from April 9th to May 27th)

3. NASCAR Martinsville 2018 (postponed to Monday)

Bautista wins 10 in a row   Kawasaki can't even beat a trimmed down Ducati on a circuit with no long straights!

 

I'd rather see van der Mark in MotoGP, maybe Moto2 first and then the big boys. He's pretty much stuck in WSBK with odd podiums here & there.
