Suzuka 8 hours

[justracing]

The maestro Rae along with team mate Haslam dominate in this the greatest of all bike endurance races. Never had the time before to watch these long races but now being retired I've just caught up with the weekend's action from Japan and what a thoroughly intriguing encounter with 3 riders separated by less than 30 seconds after seven and half hours of racing and as for the last five minutes drama, too much excitement at my age! The red flag should have been shown immediately after that engine blow up putting oil down 10 minutes from the end. Gutsy rides from the injured Haslam and van de Mark and some superb riding from some Japanese stars.
