March 31, 2018 BikeLive #52 – The Superbike Shake-Up (w/ Greg Haines!)

BikeLive #52 – The Superbike Shake-Up (w/ Greg Haines!)

This is certainly not last year, eh? BikeLive returns with Andre Harrison and Louis Suddaby and this week, they review the Thai round of the World Superbike Championship.

On paper, it was straightforward with Jonathan Rea and Chaz Davies splitting wins, but in-depth, it’s a lot more interesting. Rea struggling when normally so dominant in Race 2, Melandri not channelling PI. Camier nearly sniffing the podium on a much improved Honda. Fores a legit contender? Yamaha still not where they want to be either. All that, and a barmy World Supersport race with Lucas Mahias getting “Krummancher’ed” for the victory, but still missing a certain Turk!

And as a special bonus, we got Greg Haines from British Eurosport to join us for a catch-up on the season so far! Enjoy, and see you next week for the first round of the 2018 British Superbike title!

BikeLive #50 – Moto2 & Moto3 Season Preview

50 episodes already huh? That’s nuts! Thanks everyone!

In this episode, Andre Harrison and Louis Suddaby break down the runners and riders in Moto2 and Moto3 heading into the season opener this weekend. In Moto2, Miguel Oliviera enters as the favourite but he might be fighting in the most stacked Moto2 season ever with Pasini, Marquez, Lowes and more potentially getting in the mix. In Moto3 the favourites seem to be Aron Canet, Jorge Martin and Enea Bastianini but… its Moto3, anything can happen, especially if KTM are stronger than last year!

Listen to us break it all down here on #BikeLive!

BikeLive #48 – Melandri Flips The Form Book

HOLY SHIT what a World Superbike weekend to start the 2018 season. In Episode 48 of #BikeLive, Andre Harrison returns with Louis Suddaby to review all the action! We had the return of flag-to-flags as tyre safety and politics reared their ugly heads again, Tom Sykes putting one over on Jonathan Rea and it NOT being Donington, Yamaha’s surprisingly disappointing weekend, and Xavi Fores stealing the show for the little red team that could.

That, plus a review of the MotoGP test in Thailand, Rossi dropping a big hint about his future, and Tech3’s dramatic breakup with Yamaha and their future too! (It totally isn’t KTM, honest)
