Interesting times.

Surprisingly and fortunately so  [thumbsup]  All we talked about last year was how boring it was, why Rea wasn't in MotoGP and what Davies could or couldn't do.

I guess we now know why Rea wasn't in GP.

The Duc is good, but nowhere near as good as Alvaro is making it look...I don't think.

Been wrong before. ;D

Might be so. Maybe the "selectors" were right all along?

That was a frigged up deal from the start.

He shoulda left Mom home.

Alvaro is running the tables. I say it again, he was no slack in MotoGP and now we are seeing the true divide in talent. Rea has enough talent to be in MotoGP, but far behind the likes of Cal. I see him as a solid factory rider (mid pack) with potential for some dips into the top 6 on his favorite tracks.
