Hopkins seems to have gone off the boil a bit Bill ? With the Kwakas coming on in the last few GP's, he just might surprise us next year ? Gaz.

Yeah, the Frenchman (and West to a lesser degree) had the green bike honking. Bring on 2008 eh Gaz.

Did you hear the race commentators say that de Puniet may now be having second thoughts about the wisdom of changing from Green to Blue ??

It has been said, that he is a bit of a crasher, but my other half doesn't care , she thinks he's a spunk !!!! Good 250 man though wasn't he ? Gaz.

Mmmm, we have something in common - my partner has the same opinion. They are probably right too. Movie stars these days are not so crash hot and can't compete with the Frog.
