    The Matt and Ben Show on GP bikes would be very interesting. They made the AMA pretty boring for a while.

    He probably wouldn't even be interested knowing how uncompetitive the Suzuki is. But it'd be interesting as hell. Apparently he's been keeping fit, and even considered a comeback this year, but didn't get good enough offers. Suzuki owe him a call, as a gift for all the AMA Superbike titles he won them!

    Dunno about boring. I saw them going hammer and tongs at Laguna Seca in '07', and it was one hell of a show!

    can you imagine the poor fuck that would have to call matt mladin and ask him to ride the Suzuki. ohhh to tape that conversation.

    was a pretty good race, lots of little bits for alot of the race. moto2 and 125's were pretty average though, but i reckon Qatar doesn't lend itself to good races.

    Yep, great race. Pedro is very worried about his left shoulder. He lost all the feeling in his left arm and had no feeling in his hand. I hope it comes right, it's the best I've seen him race.

    I think it was Dovi on the astro turf...

    If you are one of the fuckwits who don't like Stoner - then don't read: Waynes Weekly - #47
    It's OK to disagree with me. I can't force you to be right.

    and Wayne has finally joined Twitter so we can get more regular updates from him.
    A good read too by the way - cheers.

    Don't think so. Could be wrong (hardlythe first time), but Dovi was well behind Lorenzo when that went down. That's how Stoner got by Pedrosa the 1st time I reckon.

    Dovi could have tried Astroturf tracking too - but I sure saw Pedro on it. Dunno if it worried him but sure scared the shit out of me................

    I read his stuff quite often, it's good. He was definitely wearing his green and yellow glasses this time though.

    And I hope he's wrong about Ducati...
