| Re: Jordan on Ducati Isn't Jordan getting a bit more serious for his race team next year?
I heard he was actually going to start sponsoring a proper rider...
could be a rumour..
Valentino is just sooo cool!

If I had his money; lots.
But that doesn't mean he's an awsome rider. |

| Re: Jordan on Ducati Thats cool that Jordan is into motorcycles. Can only help the sport, which is great.
Looks like Rossi is warming up for F-1 in the BMW. Looks like he's into drifting also!

Valentino is just sooo cool! | There are rumors that he is going to sponsor Jason Pridmore next year as they are good friends. Montez is pretty sad, when he was in CALI for Infineon and Laguna the local AFM guys were blowing him away.

from what i saw of him at Road ATL he looked OK. he wasn't the fastest, but wasn't the slowest.
Can you outride him? |

I probably could NEVER be as fast as Montez but then again I will never have Michael Jordan as a sponsor either, nor will I ever pursue a career in motorcycle racing. Doesn't mean I can't criticize him as a rider. Pop on over to the Moto GP threads and ask people critical of Hayden and Edwards if they can outride them.
Also at VIR did you see that rider (can't remember who) that was pissed at Montez for not getting out of the way while he was being lapped? Cost him a chance at the championship or something? He was pretty pissed during the post race interview.

Namely:
Ken Hill
Chris Siglin
Andy Carman
Mike Stanton
All top AFMers---that work for a living  |

| Re: Jordan on Ducati before this whole jordan/stewart thing gets out of hand, here's a bit of history: http://www.starnewspapers.com/star/s...ts/07-z1f7.htm
bubba, you're right, he may not be the fastest, nor the slowest however, a successful business man doesn't get to where he is by being second best, or in this case, 18th best.. this is not a partial sponsorship deal, Jordan is the team and unless he's paying Stewart about 5G's a year to ride, he's not getting value for his dollar...
it's his choice so I'm not gonna say it ain't right, but Montez wouldn't be my choice... |
