WSB 2011 starts this weekend. That’s THIS WEEKEND, in case it didn’t click the first time. Our beloved motorsport calendar kicks off with WSB at Phillip Island and the boys have been doing a wee bit of testing round there before the weekend starts proper.
So, here are the times from the test’s second day. Remember, though, PI is a bit of an anomaly in that it’s not a good place to get any thorough idea of who’ll be the man to beat, especially as the Ducati pilots always rip around there. Biaggi was arse there in 2010, but went on to do quite well.

Leon Haslam went very well there last year, but this time around on the naughty BMW, things don’t appear so rosy just yet, including a little off for the little lad. We’re sure he and JT will get their Beemers sorted pretty quick.
Anyhoo, here are the times & differences pour vous.
