Nice to see Niccolo Canepa wining with Yart team on Yamaha. He is very fast fella.


Was it a wet race?

I watched it on Eurosport - Canepa's an animal................three hours on the bike in a row and looked like he'd just done a 20 min track session at inters pace.
 
Both of them looked bored and pissed off, they get a very hollow victory against their names.

Nothing against Canepa, its an epic ride, he was in the zone, but I feel for the other guys.

I thought there was only 1 team mate? At least according to Qualification sheets I didn't notice a 3rd rider
 
Parkes times were only a second slower in the dry and still competitive in the rider order. Perhaps they were a lot slower in the rain or something? I can understand how Canepa would hog the bike once he saw the Yamaha Factory team was out and he got a sniff of the victory that wasn't there before.
 
I get it, when conditions a sketchy the rider out there has all the data and knows precisely how hard to push. Saves time on the outlaps etc.

Its just shit if you're not Canepa!

Yeah, I'd be proper gutted if I'd gone to all that trouble to get there and didn't ride. A hollow victory for the other guys!
