Debut win for Crutchlow.

Debut win for Crutchlow.

After looking like Shane Byrne's closest challenger in the first race at Thruxton, Cal Crutchlow managed to put one over the Ducati rider in race two, taking a clear victory on the HM Plant Honda.

Ifs, buts, might have been! Yamaha R1, what are you on about. Race was stopped, fact. Cal won the restart, fact. it was the same for all of them. If we live on if's and buts then everybody would have been world champion, wouldn't they?

Being far too mean to shell out for Eurosprout I might not see this 'til I can borrow the end of year DVD off someone ;-)
But
Last year the HMPlant Hondas seemed to have a significant advantage in their launch control. Was that making any odds to the restart & the eventual result?

The first start( second race) Cal fluffed it so if they, (Honda) do have a good launch control, it's certainly not fool proof. Restart however, he was away into the first corner before the others had dropped thier clutches!
