It's been back-to-back weekends for WorldSBK, which means back-to-back Paddock Pass Podcasts for Steve English and Gordon Ritchie. In this episode, the dynamic duo look back at a strange and difficult World Superbike round at Mandalika in Indonesia, which left them with plenty to talk about.
Steve and Gordo talk about the state of the track, and the problems - and crashes - it caused for the riders. They talk about Kawasaki's terrible weekend, another triumphant weekend for Alvaro Bautista and Ducati, and how Toprak Razgatlioglu came back to winning ways.

HEY STEVE 1st, thanks of…
HEY STEVE
1st, thanks of course. Love your work Mr English.
Please and thank you more Supersport time/coverage.
Interest is in a blossom! There is a BUNCH there to consider.
(Current Top 5 are how many Manu's?! Hell of a topic)
Example on this Pod...What you and Gordo said about independent teams dropping Yamaha for Ducati, it applies as much or more for Suzuki GSXR750 eh? It arrived mid season 2022 in other Series. It is about to run in the Daytona 200. Late 2022 it was the bike out front with the Duc Twin, and the rider wasn't the strong part of the equation. Homologated for WSS, but...SUPER interesting thing! That would be 6 Manus btw.
Oncu and his ZX6 got some time, thanks! Just an appetizer though. And, I btw am for sure a critic of his. Wild kid, keep him here until he cuts his b.s. he's doing often.
What the heck is going on at Honda? LOTS obviously! But, we don't know a THING. Et al.
Of all our classes/series', World Supersport may be underway in the biggest change of acceleration in a LONG time. (2nd derivative went beserk post R6 Cup!). The WAY that it is doing so? Brilliant, unique. More Please!
:)
