He sure is a good interview to read.  I enjoy how candid he is about things.

If Ben were the cocky mfer that Rossi is not only would he have said that he's broken Haga and Fabriz he would have said that Bayliss retired rather than face him.

I don't know...after reading his autobiography, I think he's pretty cocky.

Not in a bad way like some people...but he's very sure of himself. Given what he's accomplished...rightfully so!

Benny Boy is with Yamaha through 2011. 

http://www.worldsbk.com/en/news/latest-news/962-ben-spies-to-stay-with-yamaha-in-2010-and-2011-.html

Anyone know what kind of $$$ he'll be making?

Hopefully he'll have a chance to race against Rossi in 2011.
Don't expect much and you won't be disappointed.

Did I actually describe taking Haga as the "safe" bet earlier in the season?   [laugh]

Careful now. Don't go putting the whammy on him. 

This IS motorcycle racing and all it takes is 1 horrific crash to alter everything.   

Stay upright Ben and bring it home...
