Yes it was an epic end to both Superbike and Supersport championships, a bit tough on Ben Wilson (I'm sure that Stephan Bradl is feeling the same after watching his enormous points lead get whittled away by Marc Marquez). Everyone's feeling sorry for Hopper, but the guy I feel most for is Shakey - he scored more points than anyone over the season, yet only finished 3rd. Despite all the fuss that people are making, I don't think that the "shoot-out" has actually added anything to the championship, it would have been good enough without it, and the 600s didn't lack any excitement for having a "normal" championship did they?
The last two laps were spellbinding, but I wouldn't class the race above the epic Bayliss-Edwards battle at Imola in 2002, they were at it over two entire races, whereas the first 18-odd laps of the final BSB race were pretty dull and processional, it only got exciting right at the end.
