After years of backing Bridewell pretty much tongue in cheek could this actually be the year ?

I can't see it myself as he is too inconsistent, its hard to look past O'Hallaran this year and he deserves to win, if only people would stop crashing into him.

I'd say Tommy is actually one of the most consistent riders on the grid.

What he's lacked in previous years is that last bit to be a regular race winner as he tends to sit at a pace he's happy with and not make risky moves. Obviously Oulton last year was a mistake.

I think he has to deliver this year, otherwise he will start being overlooked for decent rides

Well he started off alright.

It's all shaping up nicely already.

This…..he HAS to do very well at the least this Year. Couple of horrendous years on the Ducati but in a “lesser” team this year with less expectations, i think he’ll do well

I think Josh will do well this year and I’m so pleased he’s co
Img back to the TT. He’s an enormous talent and has been around at the top for 10 plus years.

However, I do hope / believe this will be Tommy’s year. I’m backing him for the title.

Kennedy was impressive today. It'll be interesting to see how he gets on with a more technical circuit. Hopefully the arm pump issues will stay away.

Good days racing by all I think....

JK had a very good ride, and also pleased for Fagan in the Cooper cup.....

Happy for Tommy, but lets how the season pans out.

Those Beer Monster Bikes look absolute stunning. PBM deserve to do well this year.

This year does seem to be shaping up to be a belter, pleased that JK is gelling with the superbike, the last time he tried to make the move, it failed miserably.

Good start for Brookes and also Vickers who for me, also has to deliver this year. Throw in the PBM b ikes, O'Show at McAms and it should be a vintage year

Two good races so far in BSB and good to see new names fighting at the front regularly but some omissions too

I thought that too! That was Rutter, after Cooper went over to shake his hand - he got the rattle can shake in response

It's a rare thing for a round one winner to then go on to win the championship. You have to go back almost 10 years (Byrne) for the last one. Just saying.

So far we've had 2 different winners so which one are you on about ?
