World Superbike 2006 DVD...
This official review is packed with cat-and-mouse battles for the lead, fairing to fairing, and wheel to wheel as brave Brit James Toseland waged a determined campaign to region the title he took in 2004.
Bayliss had other ideas though, and started the season in dominant form, leading the points table after the first 5 rounds with seven consecutive wins and consistent podium results. Eventually he netted the championship at Imola and with one round to spare, but the other placings were still up for grabs when the season reached its climax at Magny Cours. With just two points separating Toseland and Haga it was always going to be a white-hot furnace of a finale, and the top runners didn’t disappoint!
Elsewhere in the Championship points table, Frankie Chile completed his final season in a fiercely competitive year where no fewer than eight riders won at least one race. Chris “the Stalker” Walker made it two Brits in the top 10 as Kawasaki’s best placed rider, while reigning Champion Corser could only manage a fourth place podium position.
