Karl & Danny are joined again by Rich to discuss Round 8 of WSBK season which took place in July at the legendary Donington Park circuit in the UK. The guys discuss the 3 Superbike races, the first of which saw Bulega’s long run of wins broken by his teammate Iker Lecuona on the other Aruba.it Racing Ducati. Normal service was resumed in the Superpole and Race 2, with Bulega winning and extending his championship lead to a massive 133 points. For the home fans it was a boost to see Sam Lowes take a third-place finish in the Superpole Race, with Tommy Bridewell having a strong weekend and Jake Dixon back from a long injury break. The Brits also had an amazing double win to celebrate in WSSP with Tom Booth-Amos taking a pair of victories.

After the boys talk through the races, it’s over to Rich again and the interviews he captured preceding the race weekend. We have, Albert Arenas (45.44), Jake Dixon (57.43), Miguel Oliveira (1:09.52) & Valentin Debise (1:18.15).
