I can't seem to find anywhere particularly good for odds, but eventually found this site (http://www.stanjames.com/betting/?sID=1625.2&nIDEv=416597.2) which is offering some. If anyone knows anywhere better for SBK odds, let me know.
According to WorldSBK.com Toseland's already won the world cup (http://www.worldsbk.com/details.php?newsid=1115&lang=eng), so hopefully he can follow that up with a race win or two! ;)

man...it would be nice to see those races...the last couple ive seen, ive had to stay up til midnight, or 11pm, to watch, on a sunday night. good thing i have sunday and monday off.
Worth the hassle, definitely. Wish I was going on Sunday, but hopefully I can still get to Brands in a couple of months when the bank balance is a bit healthier.
Edit: I just realised I have no idea how this is going to work - 2 races after all. :doh: Let's just say this is for the race 2 result.

you could either do an averages like supercross (or is it motocross?) or put up two threads for each race.

yeah, i forgot they run two races. maybe like nes said, two threads, one for the first race, and one for the second.
personally, i think everyone on the list up there has a chance to win, except barros. its like hes got 95% of what everyone else has or something. just not enough in him to win.
I guess two threads makes sense. For this weekend I think we'll just leave it as is, but if I can find somewhere better for odds then hopefully it'll be possible to do a better job of SBK odds for future races.
I just caught the highlights of an unsurprisingly wet superpole session - 2 brits on the front row and the wild card Tommy Hill on pole! :D The ever-unlucky Kagayama had a nasty off though. It wasn't really caught on camera but looked like he hurt his hand after a nasty highside. Here's hoping he's ok for the race tomorrow. :?
Two fantastic races. Haga and Bayliss were great to watch at the front and there were some great little fights elsewhere too. Well done Toseland for getting 2 podiums. :D (Although did he really need to take all his leathers off in celebration...? :erm:)
Was glad to see Barros, Corser etc managed to escape the massive pile up at turn one relatively unscathed. Lovely bit of gymnastics from Barros as he jumped over his flaming bike as it slid towards him. :lol:
A few pics from the weekend...
And 1 more cause it'll only let me post 10 pics per post.

yeah, i was really hoping that haga would be able to pull it out, but it was not to be...oh well. imo, haga deserves to win something, the way he has been riding.
