The races were pretty entertaining, especially the SS600s. Usual suspects dominating the Superbike races, but good to see Sykes get a couple of decent finishes. Given the number of riders hurt following crashes there in testing and qualifying it's testimony to how well Carlos Checa can bounce, that following his spectacular highside in race 1 he returned and dominated race 2. Good work by his mechanics to build him a bike for the second race as well. Credit also to Biaggi for his monumental comeback after going grass-tracking at turn 1 on the first lap and re-joining dead last.

Good news for the injured guys is the four week break before it all resumes at Imola...
