World Superbikes @ Donington!

[Incomplete Pete]

Freezing cold, damp, World Superbike action at Donington Park today.

All comments welcome! I'm seriously out of practice shooting motorsports, have been shooting football far too much!


Max Biaggi leads Toseland:

I was going to go today as donington is my local track but my car broke so had to get it fixed!

Looks like it was a decent day

Nice set of pics. Like Haga through the Foggy Esses best

Nice low angles, I assume you were signed on (accredited)? If so I think it's good practice to mention this when posting ;)

Lovely set of shots Pete, I really like the one of Toseland around Copice :)

Cheers for comments, guys!

All were shot with my trusty 1D MkIIn and 300mm f2.8 L IS combo, with the 1.4xTC and 2xTC depending on where I was shooting from.

I'll shove some race day shots on tomorrow, still going through the tonnes of stock I've got to edit and caption, the one downside to working at events like this!

Don't you just love Biaggi's eyes in the last one !!!!!!!
