Re: Nicky won with a busted shoulder?!
It's all a ploy. Just making up more hype to go along with the most overhyped NTAC to ever get awarded a ride in MotoGP without actually earning or deserving it.

Ya know I stated in another thread that the tortoise will be GP champion. I stand by that quote..... He was third fastest in the testing at Sepang.. The planet are aligning as we speak.

Colryn...for real?

Maybe in a weak field, but I really don't think so in this one.

Nicky, the Pod and Vale could all get taken out, and he'd still have several people that are his equals or betters.

Re: Nicky won with a busted shoulder?!
The manufacturer that comes out with the best package is going to have a tremendous advantage. At this early date, the Suzuki is a full second faster than the fastest Honda. Obviously the gap won't hold, but I have to think that even a whiff of success is going to open up those Hammatsu corporate coffers for MotoGP in a way that was absent in the 990 era.

Even Hopper can win with a half-second per lap advantage. Vermeuelin even more so.

It will be nice to see Suzuki on the podium a few times, the only problem is having to listen to morons attributing that success to the fact that Suzuki builds a good 750cc street bike.

Re: Nicky won with a busted shoulder?!
B.S. It's all just talk. A marketing ploy. Making excuses for next year.
That NTAC should have never been in MotoGP. Never earned his seat and should have been canned after '05 for not producing.
