I was interested in Guys comments after the senior. I'd watched his sector times very closely during practice and at times he was as quick as anyone - particularly on the triumph on lap 3 of the first supersport he was quicker than anyone, so much so that i had a cheeky bet on him for the second race.

Obviously he had his issues both mechanically and in the pits during the week but the statement that he was running with Hutchy and because he thought he might be in for a win he didn't want to get into a scrap for a possible 3rd place and spoil hutchys chances.  I'm sorry but thats not the thought process of a winner,  given the history of last lap breakdowns and crashes in the senior and the fuel situation he should have pushed Hutchy and got himself into 3rd. As we saw earlier in the week  Huchy coasted home nearly out of fuel, plus his grasstracking at the nook, so there was always a chance to nick the odd place .

Don't get me wrong its all ifs and maybees but its just that lack of killer instinct,  all very sporting but you know for sure that with a sniff of a champagne cork Hutchy, Gary J and particularly MD would have forced their way past without thinking about it.

In most forms of top level motor sport expressing similar sentiments would have you axed.

I really hope Guy gets a good ride for next year and gets it nailed from the start of the first lap (not glen helen) he'll win one and then retire to become the new fred diibnah
