    Depends on the circuit. MotoGP and SPK are close on tight circuits but still way apart on faster more open ones. I read somewhere that the lap times of SPK are pretty similar to 250GP.

    Must say that SPK provides some good racing though. MotoGP currently consists of Stoner/Rossi - or Stoner if Rossi doesn't have a good start and can't use his talent in close quarters.

    The grid of the most recent MotoGP looked pretty empty - unlike SPK.

    Not sure what would be more emabarrassing...
    In SBK I'd `only' get lapped every 6 laps or so, unlike every 4 or so in MotoGP. But theres 2 races so I'd get lapped about 25% more in total, so I guess MotoGP it is

    It has to be Moto GP.
    It is the ultimate class. Unfortunatlety the last couple of years have been less than exciting and this year is not looking to improve.
    WSBK keeps getting better and better as more big name riders come in and the manufacturers are redirecting focus from Moto GP as the budgets are smaller and audiences appear to be getting equal with Moto GP.
    But having said all that, I've ridden a Fireblade, but will NEVER EVER get to ride an RCV212, hence Moto GP.
