Sykes keeps his cool after stone mishap.

Sort Comments:

Sykes gets stoned, runs at the front.

Tom Sykes was a mostly happy man at the end of his World Superbike debut at Brands Hatch after showing podium winning potential, even if the results failed to back it up.

Sykes did a stellar job all weekend.Proving he is worthy of a shot on the international stage in the near future.In a very difficult afternoon following Craig Jones horrendous accident he certainly went some way towards lifting the British fans at Brands.Sure the first race was disappointing but he was right up there until he was just plain unlucky.Shouldn't let it get him down as I'm sure a lot of the people in the WSBK paddock took notice of the job he did this weekend.

Sykes = New Toseland

Bring some more titles back to Britain!!!

I give him another year in BSB to win the championship (Byrne will bugger off to WSBK at the end of this season) and then he'll be fast tracked onto a factory Suzuki in WSBK himself.

Fantastic ride, fantastic rider, Fantastic future ahead of him! Well Done!

Seeing this performance from Sykes, Airwaves desicion of not letting Shakey run this weekend looks more bogus than EVER! Shakey needed to be in there mixing it up.I bet he was the most depressed human being on the planet yesterday.

Good job by tom.
Bit dubious about the stone in the rad though. Me thinks he blew an overtuned WSBK spec engine. He definatly had WSBK engine in for race 2

SYKES, a middle-range rider nothing to do with TOSELAND.
He has to stay in the British superbike to learn ....as being on a british circuit...nothing is proven yet !
See LAVILLA, twice british Champion....and nothing great in the WSBK as in the past. Best results in WSBK with SUZUKI ALSTARE.
The british suzuki team, since Dening left,isn't managed well! Get DENING back in the british as in MOTO GP he can't find the solution. His level is "British Championship".
The suzuki rider VERMEULEN don't like him as by the past HOPKINS ...question why ?
