‘I told you!’

Shane Byrne 6X BSB champion

‘It was never going to be easy to beat Scott Redding. The way that guy has come in, he has my complete and utter respect. Coming from MotoGP, his head could have rolled off his shoulders and disappeared up his own backside. He could have done nothing in BSB. On the other hand, he could come here and do the job he’s done. He has been the consummate professional and timed everything to perfection. I said he would saunter off with a BSB title under his belt and that’s pretty much what has happened. I told you!’
