WSBK » Wright: Shakey can win '09 WSBK title

On paper it''s too close to call: which is fantastic! Hopefully the season will play out that way throughout and we''ll have good old fashioned battles for the lead every race and a championship that goes down to the last lap of the last race. That''s all I want

Much as I like Shakey, I think Haga is due a championship so personally I''m pretty glad that Ducati ''paid a load'' for him.

I think he''s got his work cut out. Once BMW and Aprila have got there bikes dialed in, I think the V twin Duke has been caught now and without Troy the bike will struggle, Ducati should now be looking at there V4. Still i''am looking forward to what should be a great season + the bonus of a good line up of Brits. Just hope we get to see them on British soil. Anymore news on Brands anyone .

If anyone seriously thinks that Shakey could win the WSBK title on a customer bike when he doesn't even know half the circuits, want their heads testing IMO.

Wins at Donington and Silverstone maybe but no title I am afraid.

1. Haga
2. Checa
3. Kiyonari

Almost agree with you but, Johnny Rae ? Good on Supperbikes AND knows the tracks. Top 3 me thinks

well he would have to go back to BSB to win at silverstone considering WSBK dont race there you numpty.

1-Haga
2-Spies
3-Checa

If everything gels then he'll be in with a chance. Look at Sykes' and Haslam's WSBK outings, they were up there and obviously Shakey has done better than them in BSB.

Haga is consistently inconsistent, i cant see it changing even more now he has a new bike to learn and adapt to. Why is everyone righting Shakey off as Colin Wright said everyone has changed bikes for next year. He might not no all the tracks but now doubt he will be good enough for a top 5 and at the end of the day if he can get a few wins on the tracks he does no then he could be right up there. I cant see the aprilia or BMW doing much for there first season it will be just a learning year for both team and rider

Just bring it on............I'm missing the racing already.

Well done Shakey on your new bouncing baby boy.

Don't let him spoil your racing thou'
