Edwards, Xaus, Bayliss, Haga, Hodgson, Bostrom, Toseland, Chili - what a grid! đđđ
Nearly 100,000 people there watching that race it's such a shame that world superbike doesn't get that same crowds and coverage it used too. Motorcycle racing was the best during the mid 90s to early 2000s, so many great riders during that era
Dorna messed wsbk up big time. We need a new owner that can make wsbk Great again
Yes its a shame. To be fair though racing in general has declined in terms of viewership and spectatorship since the 90's/2000's. Besides F1, motorracing is almost a niche on the fringes of the mainstream now. Rally decline from the group b days, touring car decline from the supertouring days, the list goes on. Motorsport directors/heads need to look at some rules/changes/competitions they can make/create to get more quality entertainment like this back on the track and pull in more fans!
@@simonh1791 Its all just boring spec shit now, and, that boring electric shit, ...ugh, thank fk I lived through the great years.
....apart from BSB, that's still fkn awesome.
I'm so glad I got to race in theses years before electronics took over THE GREAT GOLDEN YEARS!
This was one of the best championship seasons ever. I was delighted to see Honda's RC51 get the win!! Edwards riding was incredible to say the least.
So glad I was there that sunday. One of greatest battle in motorsport history.
Me too!...
@@Dado010970 Acque Minerali per me, e dodici infarti quel giorno!
From Indonesia đđ amazing
2002 was such a fantastic year.
Yea, Baylis, Edwards, Corser, Haga, BB
@@neogeoo1 corser wasn't there in 2002 he was signing with foggy Petronas that year
One for the ages. A battle of true champions.
Best WSBK race I've ever seen in my life
The BEST racing in the world, bar none. A true ERA of WSB.
Thank you worldsbk for making it easier to stay at home
I watched this live and it still is fantastic. Where has that time gone?! The last time WSBK was truly great. It has lost some of it's magic since then.
You're absolutely right. Need some mad characters back it's all a bit safe and sponsor- friendly now.
Racing has lost it's magic in general. But it's not because racing has changed (except from F1). Rally and motorcycle racing is still the same, but they receive less coverage. Another issue is that people don't have the money to go watch racing anymore.
To me this was World SBK golden era.
i was super lucky to watch this live on TV as it happened almost 20 yrs back - to date i have NEVER seen a more thrilling race, not in WSBK, MotoGP, F1, or any other series i follow - what a treat !!! - undoubtedly the greatest most exciting motorsports race i've ever watched
More classic races please!
The golden season of superbikes (Haga, Corser, Bayliss, Xaus...)
Racing doesn't get any better than this race ! Thanks for posting.
Forever will this race be remembered as a true clash of the Titans
I forgot what a humdinger ending to the 2002 SBK season that race was.... Definitely one that'll forever be a legendary one in history... Gotta love old school SBK....
Non potrĂČ mai dimenticare questa gara che ho avuto la fortuna di vedere dal vivo. Questa Ăš Sbk!!!
What a treat to watch during the time of Corona Crisis đ„
It's a treat to watch any time
true classic. seeing two of the fiercest competeters battle it out on the track, and then to see them together at the end... brilliant riders and truly great sportsmen.
My favorite WSBK race all time! This is what made the RC51 "One liter Ducati eater." Simply awesome!
They ate about 12 of them that race/year.
Same - along with the BSB same year - epic battles in both series
8:52 rider pissing on the pit wall!!!!
đ when you gotta go, you gotta go.
Me and my friends were right in front of them đ...
One pilot was Paolo Blora, rider of Italian Police team...
About commentators, haven't seen any comments, that may be my fault, but would have liked to hear Huewen/Ryder as in my oppinion they were the best duo. Appart from them Burnicle/Witham was a pretty good ensamble, keep in mind as voices go Jack Burnicle is my favourite,(thanks a lot for the good memories) but well done Parrish/Cox, this one makes for good memories, i would like to see the entire season as a documentary or full races even, as in my oppinion these were the best races i ever seen. Thanks a lot to the commentators again, you're voices made the races a true spectacle, and the show much more enjoyable.
Wow, brings back memories. More please!
The sort of heart stopping racing that Formula 1 would kill to have. Hard fought but with total respect.
I dreamed of this yesterday! Thanks WSBK!
Best race ever!!
Actually both races were insane! CE just ripped that Championship from Troy!
I've been trying to find this race for years! Thank you so much for putting it up!
AWESOME!!!đ lâll watch all you can upload. Thanks for helping us through this. Fantastic race!
We need more SBK races on this amazing channel đđ
Thank you ! I love this epic season, Ducati vs Honda, Bayliss vs Edwards
I love it!! What a Race!! And the Sound!! Amazing!!! đ€©
Andreas Tetzlaff honestly those Ducatiâ 998F02 sounded amazing. Brands hatch back straight đ©đ
The season was insane, Bayliss and Edwards won 25 of the 26 races and Tamada won the other one at Sugo. All Edwards could do was finish 2nd until the updates after the Suzuka 8h and Bayliss couldn't stop him after. Two of the greatest SBK riders of their generation head to head all season :D
Agree with all the positive comments here. Was lucky to be at Laguna Seca when everyone saw the fire in Edwards eyes after race one. Respectful, handlebar banging racing. No kicking your competitor off the track, like you know who. Immense respect for Colin and Troy.
Has to be rated as one of the best races ever. Even the commentators were brilliant.
Good to see my hero Ruben Xaus giving it the full beans. Have to watch the race again,
so much better than 2019 WSBK and I think 2020 if it ever gets going.
Hats off to Bayliss and Edwards, true gladiators
Xaus was the most frustrated rider in parc ferme lol because his clutch packed up
Muchas gracias por poner esta carrera completa. Carreras como esta ya no hay đ
Thank you bayliss and edwards.for so good entertainment.and all the other good guys.
Thanks for the upload, great racing
estas son las carreras de ese tiempo del 2000 al 2010 de superbike que buscaba y no encontraba , suban mas videos
Early 2000âs best years ever in SBK!!!
2002 was maybe the best year ever for motorcycling. Bayliss vs Edwards in Superbike and Rossi vs Biaggi in MotoGP.
lol Rossi utterly shat on everybody in 2002
C'mon, 2002 MotoGP season was a no-show. SBK season was way better. Late 90s-first 00s years SBK >>> MotoGP
@@leonardofabbri7930 perĂČ il pilota piĂč forte di sempre ha corso nel motomondiale nei late 90' s/ early 2000's.
What a nice riding style. No legs hanging out and no rear wheels jumping on the air. đ
Listen to that crowd going crazy.
I was there, race one at Variante Bassa, race two at Tosa...
I was 17yo and drove a Cagiva Mito 125, now iâm 35 and drive a 998S...
Me too
Thank you â€ïžđ»
Lovely bit of nostalgia. Used to love watching this championship, was a huge troy bayliss fan as a kid...naturally Lol
Been wanting to watch this for years. Thanks for uploading. Good to hear Cox and Parrish again.
Neil Martin takes me right back as though it was yesterday. I did enjoy Charlie moody and Julian Ryder in gp though
Svenskaz34 bbc mate
I think around 04 05 but thatâs a vague memory
@@cherrybopbop jason. I want Toby Moody and Julian Ryder to return to MotoGP 2022.
Purwanti Allan how awesome would that be
what an incredible race..Colin Edwards and Bayliss.
VTR1000SP ohh what a beautiful bike
Brilliant! More classic races please!
The best race I have ever seen in my life.
What a race!! What a bikes, zero electronics....only engine, courage and right wrist!! What a riders!! Then the bike's sounds are amazing!! This was the REAL SBK!!!
Thank you for this!
This race is basically the very best that motorsport has to offer!
Absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!!
Two great champions on amazing bikes, on an historic Italian circuit under sunny skies in front of adoring, appreciative fans...
Bellissimo!!
Wow. SBK classic races. I like Hockenheim race 2 in 2000 , same year Kyalami . Donington ,Philip Island 98. Laguna Seca 2000/98 and all races Haga did the show
They ran the Black Forest? Wow
Everyone thinks Rossi invented the âDoctors Dangleâ - hanging your leg off the bike when braking to help keep the weight further back on reduce rear wheel lift... Nope!! Watch Xaus in this race. He was doing this in 2002 already đđŒ
Schwantz was doing it in 1988.
@@muhammadfarhan581 Well aware. Kevin didn't "dangle" he took his foot completely off the left peg to adjust its position after downshifting. No one else was doing that, they just slid their foot back, so Schwantz looked weird at the time. Schwantz is also Vale's idol and Vale started doing it in 500's to emulate his hero. Watch Rossi in 250's and he doesn't do it.
I was doing the leg dangle back in the late 70's early 80's. I would do it right before crashing into my neighbors car when riding my bicycle.
@@mtbohana ah, ha, ha, ha!
This was an golden era đ€€đ€©
Love the Honda, what a great machine, in my World honda's best ever.
i just ended up with a 2001 rvt what a powerhouse. fun to watch it perform on the track thx
The race bike is around 180 to190 hp and you should look and see if you can find an update kit takes your bike from 133 180 hp.
I was 16 when this happened the greatest race
My dad would record these races whenever they showed on tv back in the day . I was 7-8 years old at the time
Dream duel in an extraordinary era of SBK.
Incredible that Bayliss and Edwards remained correct in hand-to-hand for the world title.
That's because they're both classy dudes. Fierce competitors on track, good mates off it. You can't ask for more.
this got me obsessed with roadbikes as an 18yr old.,Caught it at the pub and was fixated, ignoring everyone there haha
THANK YOU
Queste sono gare di SBK!!!
Just amazing, what a race
Thanks!
I WAS HERE FOR THIS LEGENDARY RACE!
definitely one of the greatest wsbk races
More full races please!!

This race was the GOAT of all Super Bike Races...đ
Questi erano i veri piloti, adesso Rea sarebbe stato ultimo. Grandi campioni che lottavano in molti in pista. Sono stati bravissimi. Questa Ăš stata la gara piĂč bella della SBK.
The golden era of personalities
One of my best memories â„ïž
Wow, that was fun to watch
Colin and Baylis. Some of the best of all times .....
Hats off to Bayliss & Edwards, but what Hodgson did on that privateer Ducati was incredible.
One of Bayliss best rides. Absolutely on it.
Yeah, great race!
Thumbs up if you need this race in a better quality than 480p
Che gara......brividi....â€
it was exciting back then, and still today
Muy lindo el homenaje con el casco de Senna
Have a 1198 now. But man miss my vtr sp2. Remember this year where Edwards had to fight the army of ducatis
I'm an Aussie, but Colin was my favorite racer .
Cool upload, yes!! : D
Such good racing. I like that the whole grid is Ducati. #Forza
I was there... No words to say the emotion
Wonderful race. Good to see something else than Ducati on the top.
This was âtheâ era for WSBK for me.. I never missed a race & would banish my kids to their bedrooms lol
Class acts....đđ»
WorldSBK Classic
This has been one of the best 3 races ever in moto racing, whatever championship
Bayliss, Edwards, Haga, Hodgson, Walker, Xaus etc.
Back when wsbk was still looked at as another feeder series for motogp.
the issue is that WSBK and MotoGP are just so close now that they became rivals. when WSBK bikes were derivated from road it was like a ramp for MotoGP. similar to Moto2 or CRT. now WSBK bikes are so full of tech and far from road origins that the displacement is the same, power is almost the same. the only difference is WSBK bikes are done with ultra high end aftermarket parts and MotoGP bikes are prototypes. but in the end, lap times are pretty close. DORNA took over WSBK to put a stop between them and to force top teams to feed themselves with Moto2 riders which is there for that. it's understandable. but the door isn't close on the other way around. WSBK also benefits from MotoGP riders. Biaggi, Checa and many others. that spices up the series pretty well because WSBK riders can show what they can do against MotoGP riders.
@@jiboo6850 I mean it was when successful wsbk riders went to MotoGP, now it's more that retired MotoGP riders go to wsbk because they no longer have a GP ride
@@grandmasterj5 do you even read bro? i perfectly understood your 1st comment and explained why it happened and why now it doesn't. O_O
@@jiboo6850 you've said it's good because that's what moto2 is for, but the reason I've said it's not a good thing at the moment is that riders like Rea etc now get overlooked.
Obviously doesn't help that Kawasaki aren't in MotoGP, but still. It was a good way for riders that came up through road bikes to get into MotoGP instead of being a MotoGP retirement home.
It kind of means that MotoGP doesn't necessarily have all the best riders in the world anymore, as the ones that took an alternate path now get overlooked.
Happy new year 2021 everyone.
When there will be the video of the race of Monza 1999 or Assen 1996 or Monza 1996 when Chili won???Fantastic!!!
What a great race! Edwards could have won the championship finishing second in the race but he fought for first.
Only one place for that SP-2, Edwards front room!! What a race!!
Honda VTR
The race of the century
That Ducati looks like a monster to ride on the edge.
If I remember correctly the 2002 Laguna Seca round also had some riders from the AMA in the race as well? I vaguely remember Ben and Eric Bostrom in the same race as well as Nicky Hayden and others
The greatest race of all time
