McCoy is one of the most entertaining riders to watch, regardless of the series or bike he's riding.

Re: FIM World Superbike Season opens this weekend
I'm hoping the Ten Kate team pulls off the major upset. Nothing would be finer than spoiling Flammini's attempt at slanting the series in favor of everything Italian.

Re: FIM World Superbike Season opens this weekend
Watching race 1 right now. Anyone else think the announcers are lame? I didn't watch last year, but watching this feels like watching a has been series or something. Doesn't have the same feel as the once great series. Was gonna stick around and watch both races, but something tells me to get my errands done instead.

Yes, good showing from Foggy's Petronas team. I liked him when he was racing. Arrogant and cocky beyond anyones imagination, but had the skills to back it up.

Just one thing though, is he freekin' colour blind, or what?? Jeez, those things are painful to look at.
