Love hate Ben Spies Noriyuki Haga Portimao 2009SBK Superbike

[Mr69superbike]

These two are amazing racers and you can see the game face come off Haga's face at the end. I wish I knew what Haga was saying to Ben in the end of the interview.

[pillorello]

#11 is not my favourite...

[maddogmozz]

@DucRacerX mmmmmmm.......

[sp125racing]

always good to see this side of racing

[skipperagm123]

@DucRacerX They don't need to learn english to mow your lawn and bang your wife.

[kicorossi]

@DucRacerX  SPIES !!!!!

[125kingo125]

why dont you try and win a race on the ducati then rossi is going to get a nasty shock there will be 4 aliens in 2011 and rossi wont be one of them

[lewjohnhill]

Ben spies will be a serious title contender in 2011.......mark my words!!!!

[SRSpoony]

casey stoner is a little bitch and cries like a girl every race.

ben is a true racer

[schumachertimesrossi]

@SRSpoony ben is a very good rider, but really i'm sick of stoner's whining and complaining at every race.

[chungdha]

WTF never knew that Haga speaks Italian.

[slipknot1551927]

ben is my favorite rider along with casey stoner

[shortliner1425]

team texas!XD

[jballzzz]

When he punches the asian...it is all good....! They eff around!...completely acceptable!!!

[MOTOJUNKYRACER]

Good to see that Spies and Haga could shake hands and joke around off the track, and then go out there and battle. Spies will be in the top 3 this year in Moto Gp!!!!!!!

[smurf022]

I was up for Nori to win the championship in 09, and i think at 1 point he had a lead of 88 points and he still lost the championship, theres just no excuses for that

[andrewshere]

smurf022, Gotta agree with you about Haga. I wanted him to win so much but he blew it. I hope he wins the championship this coming season, and I hope he does so with some strong competition - JT, Haslam, Biaggi and so on.

[Motosportnut]

@ smurf022

You have no qualifications to make a statement like this unless you can qualify on the grid of a WSBK championship race. These guys are putting their lives on the line and riding on the limit race after race. In order to do that you have to be perfectly comfortable with your set up, and this is difficult to achieve from rider to rider, racetrack to racetrack. Ben Spies won 14 out of 28 races, Haga won 8. When Ben did finish lower than first on average it was higher than Nori. Cont...

[Motosportnut]

Ben had 6 extremely detrimental occurrences, Haga had 4. In the end, the championship was decided by 6 points. It was a great championship.

[600IR]

@smurf022 Haga had more than 100 points on the 2nd place(ben) and little by little he came back. Thought haga got championship on lock already, but guess anything can happen. Fell real bad for haga though. Comes so close every year just to get it taken away every year. Hope he does good this year even tho he is starting out crappy.

[Duc1198YamR1]

can't wait for MotoGP in 2010

[v3rtic4L5miL3]

aaaaaah So sad for Nori, But Spies was good, very good.

Crossfingered for next year Nitro

now more than ever

[TheDesmoPilot]

Haga has a familar foe again.....Toseland and same team as Spies LOL

[seerattan]

nori is my nº1 rider always saw every race since 97 taught this year would be the win,6 points losing a championship is a pity doh

[massidaidegas]

hehehe bambinoni che sono !

[ferny12345623]

love him or hate him spies is a amazing rider. broke every record, champion in his rookie year on a new bike! had to learn just about every track, whats more to say but amazing!! sucks that haga fell but that was his mistake.

[operationnorthwoodz]

Did Haga catch flu from a flu shot?

[motogpfan46rossi]

I like spies a lot because he rides hard, isn't afraid to put his machine to the limit to win. Haga is a tough competitor as well. He has came close a few times but anyone who has followed for the last 5 yrs knows that he falls too much. Spies fell a lot this year too in his rookie year.

[spidertx1]

Ben Spies world superbike champion Hell yeah!!!

[thorneel]

Dont you worry Yamaha, Ducati will be back next year! All they got to do is bitch about 4 strokes having an unfair advantage, Threten to pull out of WSB and then when they get their way introduce a 1200cc bike call 1098? and race it.

OOOH! They have already done that, what will they do now?

Well done Ben and congratulations.

[todzuki]

The factory bikes are 1198's. The customer bikes this year were the 1098's. And they're all 4 strokes. Other than that your post is only mostly retarded.

[thorneel]

I'm sure you know all about retards since you are the offspring of two.

[ferny12345623]

i never understud why ducati was allowed to race a 1198cc bike when everyone else can't go over 1000cc's. i like both ducati and yamaha ben still the champ! go USA!

[thorneel]

Your not alone bro!

[kswdragon74]

because every biek in superbieks have 4 cylinders, and ducati only have to so to make it more power to match the 4's they made it 1198cc, im sad nori never won but i hope next year! he deserves a win!!!

[Angelus12308]

Number of cylinders,though it is kinda stupid.Twins have better cornering abilities so they naturally should be crippled in acceleration to make things equal,but now things are in favor of Ducati.

[tripleheshy]

Spoken like a truly entitled Socialist asshole. Whatever happened to "earning" something? Wishing a rider to crash shows just how worthless you truly are. Why "should" he be the champion because he's had bad luck? I feel bad for Haga as well but that doesn't mean you simply hand him the title. Hard to believe people like you actually open your pie hole and say shit that ignorant.

[NickPayne6]

well I just like Haga better and think he earns it better over all those years so I can wish whatever I want. btw u are from states so ur words are useless here - u are just a spies fan

[HazeGreyAndUnderway]

There's such a thing as a prodigy, moron. So if someone does better than someone else in a season, they arent entitled to win just because they dont have seniority? What a bullshit way of setting up a championship :/ Youre hypocritical too, saying that someone doesnt have any right to say whats on their minds

[NickPayne6]

Well u are obviously a dumb fuck. I can wish whatever I want, shitface. I`m Haga fan and I dont like spies boy so and I dont care if this is right or wrong - I dont have to. Hamilton won the f1 championship not because of his skills but because of timo glock "mistake" - u should complain to him to, idiot.

[HazeGreyAndUnderway]

Ok I'll act like you... "btw, your words are useless here, youre just a Haga fan so you dont have any right to say that Spies doesnt deserve a win." Remember, Haga was a rookie at one point in time too, and he was quite good, just like Ben.

[NickPayne6]

My words are useless because its just my stupid youtube hopes and it wont change anything. I never said that spies doesnt deserve a win I just wanted haga to win, it was my private wish and opinion and u are bulshiting me with this right or wrong, fair or not things...life is brutal get use to it...I wanted haga to be the champion but he is not. End of story.

[todzuki]

But you HOPE BEN CRASHES IN RACE 2. Very sporting of you. Spoken like a true Ducati fan(boy).

[NickPayne6]

Omg u guys are taking this really to serious..I'm not a god and u know..shit happens on the track all the time ;-)

[tkwood]

Easy on Ducati. NickPayne6 does not speak for Ducati. I own Ducatis and like Haga but am glad that Spies won the championship. It will be good to see him in Motogp going against Stoner and Rossi.

[schumachertimesrossi]

@NickPayne6 "btw u are from the states so your words are useless here", hey kid im also from the states as well!!

[dbciii]

Haga and Spies are good friends, I am a huge fan of both and have nothing but respect for both of them. As a racer myself I would rather beat someone heads up then hope that they crash. It was a good year they both had some bad luck and Ben came out on top, I would like to see Haga win it next year. And I am looking forward to seeing Spies, Rossi, Hayden, Stoner, Lorenzo and Edwards mix it up!

[NickPayne6]

I would now like to see spies on factory yamaha in motogp - winning with rossi and lorenzo if he is really that good but on this satelite yamaha I dont think it is possible

[Angelus12308]

That guy could win MotoGP on a tricycle.

[Vilas30]

@dbciii Nice commente i agrea with you abaut this two riders... For sure both of then whant number 1.. but they know that fight will gona happen=).. Ben make one Miracle but i also feel for Haga because i never win a world title in Wsbk and this was is best chance at Ducati but well Big Ben Ride that Yamaha R1 like no other guy

[tripleheshy]

Way to go Ben grabbing pole for tomorrow!!! Bring it home boy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
