Look at the first day's times and it's surprising some people are lower
than you'd expect. But then look at the times and the first 15 are
within one second. And it's always hard to tell how much the weather,
wind and temperature (and birds) are affecting things.
This is going to make the new superpole formula fun to watch. With the
field so close and so big, it's going to be critical you get into it.
And then you have to do 3 perfect laps but at least you can take a lap
or two to build up to them.

Woah! 3 great, great races. And Ben's Pies got his first win.
There's 20 odd riders capable of podiums which is going to make for a
great season with some upsets along the way. Haga and Ben look like the
class of the field, but Rea, Laconi, Neukirchner, Biaggi and many others
are going to keep them honest.

Yeah it looks to be an amazing series this year.
It will be a joy to watch this racing with 26+ bikes on the grid. Including
the new 'Priller and BMW.
I don't see how MotoGP can compete excitement-wise with so few bikes on the
grid, and with none of last years' races won by a second or less.
I'm wondering if Hopper will eventually get a ride in GP.

Good, wasn't it. Especially, as you say, the WSS race.
