Leon Haslam: A tricky weekend at Magny-Cours

Leon HaslamHi everyone

Not a bad weekend then. I really enjoyed the track but the racing was quite lonely for me. We chose the harder tyre in the first race and it didn’t work quite as well. I was the only one using that tyre too so it was a bit of a gamble. In race two we had a couple of electrical problems but nothing too major so I just couldn’t push as hard as I wanted.

It’s true that I will part company with Stiggy after this season which is a shame as I have really enjoyed being a part of their team and I think we have worked really well together. Suzuki is on the cards for the next few days and I will let you know as soon as it’s a done deal, but it’s all very exciting.

I’ve been flying again today and this weekend I will go to Oulton on the Saturday to see some of the BSB boys in their last race. Then it’s off to Loch Lomond to play a couple of rounds of golf with friends. Oli is in London this weekend doing her half marathon. She’s been training really hard so she should blitz it.

I can’t believe the season’s nearly over, it’s gone so fast but it’s been awesome too. I love being in WSBK.

Speak soon

Leon
