Very nice.

[Jamie Holladay]

Nice set. I really like #6.

[Swiss Toni]

Nice ones Nick, you didn't waste any time. That last shot is great and the one of the M.V. of course.

1000mm sounds about right for Silverstone. ;)

[fortisi876]

[RichardC27]

Excellent set. I'll go along with everyone else and pick #6 as my favourite.

[SuperDan]

Just love the one showing the eyes of Michael Rutter looking for his line through the corner...cant wait to see the BSB at brands in a few weeks time...

Great set...

[lifeisablur]

Lovely set - were you the guy with the large tripod and massive camo lens? I was stood next to you during "roll for pole" if you are - shots look about same position, hairpin. #4 Rutter is my favourite one - I'm going pop a few up later from race day.

[Swaffs]

Great shots. I was there with a 400 and for most times with 2.0 tele. It's a crap circuit for togs!

Cheers Stuart, I agree the MV is a bit special.

Garry, these were taken Friday, I was a little further down from the grandstand, I was positioned on the mound. I look forward seeing yours.

Great shots. I was there with a 400 and for most times with 2.0 tele. It's a crap circuit for togs!
Thanks, yes its hard for you lot but even harder for us public togs;)

Cheers

Try THESE (http://www.ducati.com/docs_eng/home_page_racing/motogp_sounds.html). The pit wall one is pretty good.

Or for a real aural treat, CLICKY (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=GrdsO_ZIU1o). :D
