To put this in perspective last year cc qualified 8th so I can't see why everyone is so down on smith.It is his 4th meeting on the thing,surely we should cut him the same slack as Mr V.Rossi,it's only his 4th time on the Yamaha too,it must take a little time even for him to get back to the top level
So I reckon that not only will mr Rossi improve but also Bradley Smith will start to regularly populate the top ten and will finish a few times in the top 6 and at least once in the top 5

Dude...Moto GP is THE pinnacle of motorcycle racing. Bradley Smith has done exactly what to deserve what is possibly one of the best seats outside of a full factory ride? If you want to use the word perspective...how did Casey Stoner go in his first year on a sat bike...when tyres were VERY diff between factory teams and sat teams? Hey...he's obviously a very talented racer...no one gets as far as he has other wise...but Moto GP? Really? Sorry. There are lots of racers I think would deserve his seat well before I picked him.

on that assumption they will all improve...meaning the top six (JL, VR, DP, MM, AD, NH) will get better...which gives smith even less chance of making top five in a race

Like fuck. You're going down quicker than Rossi's reputation.

That may be so,but he is there for whatever reason.Casey was very fast from the off but he crashed(a lot).I still say he deserves this season to impress us(or not).In a similar vein WTF is Colin Edwards there for?

As they say mate....you can get a fast guy to stop crashing...much harder to make a slow guy that doesn't crash go fast.

14 races bro. You only need to lose once whereas I have to lose 14 times!! Crutchlow bangs himself up a bit more, Bradl's front end gets worse instead of better, Marquez goes for the high jump record, plus who knows what other mishaps and the skinny, pasty, bald guy's in with a grin.
