I was at Donington on Sunday as my mate was racing with derby pheonix on the 400,in the paddock across from us was a group of guys running Ducati's in the thunderbike races including the first 1098 I've seen outside a shop.
I only had a chance to watch one of the actual races and was faintly dissappointed at the 1098 being comprehensively whupped, by aprilia's mostly, but also a 999 and 998.I know this has probably more to do with the rider than the machine but somehow I expected it to be further up the field.
Anyone else seen it in action? What did you think?
 
not seen it in thunderbikes ut have seen it in other series and it's prety darn quick there so may have just been an off day for the rider??
