| Re: Nicky to Replace Rossi Interesting.
I will say I don't think HRC promotes Nicky well. |

| Re: Nicky to Replace Rossi HRC seems more like a machine than a unit run by actual people. I think they see Nicky as an object or literally an asset to be used as they see fit. But Nicky is very marketable so I dont see them letting him go...although he would be a good fit with Colin. |

| Re: Nicky to Replace Rossi Interesting. Silly Season next year will be most interesting. I'd like to see someone (Nicky!) take the championship away from Rossi before Rossi leaves, though. |

| Re: Nicky to Replace Rossi The worst part is since Rossi left, HRC seems content giving their "A" rider the development bike. Rossi had it, but he could handle it and ride through most problems the bike had, he has that kind of God given talent. Instead they ought to have a development rider work through the issues and let their racers with a chance just ride. |

| Re: Nicky to Replace Rossi How about Marco (2nd in points) Hayden (3rd in points) versus Old Man River that you love so much. |
