As a Kiwi I cannot tell you how proud I am to see Simon doing his thing on a world scale. So good having someone who knows his stuff and has been there himself explaining this stuff in such a simplistic way. Excellent work.

Back in the day..simon was gonna qualify on pole, until mick doohan has a last lap superhuman effort to snatch pole. Simon was watching, standing next to the interviewer and responded by saying..”wow, he’s just great !” Simon, you’re a man among men..bravo!

@GeorgiaGrowGuy 3 года назад

Simon, when you started out hosting it was pretty rough. But you have become an absolute treasure. I'm glad that you and your employer stayed the course. I hope we get to hear a bit more from you vs last season. Cheers!

@Motosapien46 3 года назад

Couldn't agree more! Even when it was rough at first, I still enjoyed Simon more than Dylan. Now that Simon's comfortable, it's great! When he cuts in I perk up because I know it'll be something meaningful and worthwhile!

You can tell Simon rides a motorcycle by the way he explains the operation of a motorcycle and his body movements when he explains it. He was in an era of racing that’ll be missed. Plus, there’s some amazing machining work on that steering head.

@christhomas239 Год назад

This is so much better than the rubbish on F1 cars. Here we have Simon who was a top class rider, who is passionate about bikes, and who explains things in terms that even a non-rider would understand. And he gives us examples of what is happening as you ride it flat out on the track. I just learned that these bikes are unbelievably technical and far beyond a road bike, but I also learned very specific things. Simon's commentary at each race is also excellent. Please don't add an idiotic Martin Brundle pit walk and just do what you do.

But what about the clutchkess shifting. Could you give more detail on GP shifting vs Moto2 vs 3 vs Superbike vs street and so on. Especially down shifting from higher gears to lower gears. When did they stop grabbing the clutch and blipping the throttle???
