So many events this weekend at Magny-Cours! First Toseland who waits for the very last round of the very last event to conquer an incredible title with only two points ahead of Haga…

Then Biaggi that we announce on foot for 2008 … The divorce seems indeed consummated between Alstare and the Star (!), Between Batta and Biaggi, between the Roman and Suzuki…

Unless Flammini, the championship promoter, catches little Max by the straps to ensure the international promotion of his championship ?

Finally, as often in modern sport, it is all about (big) money…

But there are also the little things that are important: Foret who loses his place of vice-champion in favor of Broc Parkes and thus deprives his Kawasaki team of an honorary title. The curious thing is that Foret will be Parkes’ teammate at Yamaha next year! Who profits from the crime ?

More gratifying, the good performances of some French riders, starting with Gregory Leblanc, ninth in Supersport despite a loss of equipment. Without forgetting the good races in Superbike of Yoann Tiberio and Guillaume Dietrich (wild card), respectively 12th and 13th in the second round.

And then quieter pains that cross the paddock, while we celebrate a new title with fanfare: the death of Massimo, one of the drivers of the Alstare team the night before the race. And the sad news of the death of Norick Abe, victim of a road accident in Japan (read)…

So is life, so is the Superbike. Next season kicks off on February 23 in Qatar. Until then, be well: A. Laffut remains in contact !
