Simon has improved a lot since he first came here. At least he's clearly audible now and I just love it when he goes down memory lane.

Love the camera work. Slowly turning forward in the corners.. Body position viewing cam and knee sliding cam was great..

This is Simon Crafar WSB & GP racer. He won the 1998 British GP and before you think rain, it was in the dry.

Who would thumbs down this?? Mr Crafar giving his totally qualified commentry on riding a bike fast. Some blokes nerd to take a good hard look at themselves!!

I love these vids... Simon, you can still through a litre bike round a track extremely well! Good to watch, love all your insights and knowledge to. Brilliant. Love your work mate (James from Mototorq)

This bloke should be given more airtime. He knows what he is talking about. The other talking heads just want to go on about how hot or cold it is and try to be comedians.

I've been riding Motegi for three years and know this track like its my living room. This guy shows up, probably does 3 practice runs, and beats my best time by 4 seconds.

Had the pleasure of spending a a few days with Simon, Steve Plater & Micheal Rutter in Jerez many years ago. I don't think Simon ever forgave me for winding him up by saying that Rutter was still at the sharp end and new what he was talking about... Rutter & Plater had put me up to it.... Oh and the drive back from Jerez town to the hotel one night, got roasted by the concierge for handbrake turning in the hotel. LOL

Heard you working more than usual in those brake zones Simon 😏 I’m looking forward to a good race! Loving these track vids 👍✌️

That big mistake that every broadcast of motorsport makes: Changing angles on onboard laps! Please give us ONE FORWARD LOOKING ANGLE, from the riders chest or chin and STICK WITH IT for the entire lap!!! That is what we as riders and fans want: To see what ist like to ride this bike or lap. We want the riders perspective, not a demonstration of how good you are at cutting. Why would I look backwards or at my Hands on a hot lap? At least you could upload one lap from forward looking angle additionally if you don‘t share my opinion, PLEASE!
And even if you think your fancy camera stuff is better, why do you turn the 360 cam around JUST BEFORE THE ONLY FAST CORNER ON THE CIRCUIT. I mean, am I the only o e who is sick of that?

[Roy_Godiksen]

I wish we got a head cam all the way cam in sted of this heavy edit stuff.

this persons lines are great but i think he's not so good at opening throttle in the exit. ofcourse he didint practice much nor racing. conclusion he is good

[prevailinghope]

Why on earth does the GPS lose his position every time he passes under a bridge?!?!

[dertom]

Show us the track and not the rider, ....
