Speaking of WSBK, it ! Jonathan Rea will try and defend his title against team mate Tom Sykes, Ducati’s Chaz Davies, and former GP racer Nicky Hayden beginning this week at Phillip Island in Australia.

WSBK is moving to a two-day format, with the two main races ending each day’s events. This week, that puts the main race at 8 p.m. PST/11 p.m. EST on both Saturday and Sunday nights. WSBK does a great job with their calendar section of the site, and you can .

If anyone needs me this Saturday, I’ll be not crashing a motorcycle, watching Supercross, and then watching WSBK.
