Dead right, Clive!
Nori is the best rider (apart from Aaron Slight) to have never won the WSBK championship.
Go Nori!

Oh yea - this season in WSBK is gearing up to be a great one. There is the element of the unknown with so many riders changing to new teams (Corser and Biaggi) plus the entry of the linkes of Rae and Spies - its really gonna mix this championship up with some great racing I bet. So exciting!!!!!!!!!!!
