Fantastic to see TROY BAYLISS WORLD SUPERBIKE CHAMPION for the second time. If he had not gone to MotoGP for a while how many times do you reckon he would have been crowned by now???
What a Legend

I am pretty sure that makes TB the only rider ever to win races in WSBK & MotoGP(or the old 500cc) in the same year. I remember Carl Fogerty running out of fuel in the lead on a Cagiva 500cc in a wildcard ride @ Donnington (or one of the other British Tracks) but I don't remember anyone actually winning in both series in the same year.
For that matter are there any Superbike riders that have won in MotoGP before? Simon Crafar won in 500cc but he never won a race in WSBK, Did Garry McCoy win in both? What about Corser? Colin Edwards has not clinched a GP win as yet. Are there any others?
