MOTOGP » Injury sidelines Hopkins again

I would love to see Chas Davies with this team along side Ant West

now there is an interesting thought tom..however the green meanie would probably end his season he would try so hard.

Davis and Hacking would be nice, hopper to pack his bags and pick his mate NH up on the way to the airport.

ZX9R Steve, what's your deal? Do you just hate Americans or something? Nearly every time you post, you're down on the US riders. One would think it's almost personal..

Isnt Hacking American?

thats a sweeping statement johno "hate americans" No its got nothing to do with where they are from. Have i ever mensioned Edwards, no!, he's brill, and i realy do like hacking..so time to shut up and get off my case about NH & JH its them and not their nationality, ok.

I hope John recovers soon, he sure had his share of injuries this season

I agree with John Spoonemore sounds like Steve is a hater.

You can bash NH or JH but how about some of those other looser like West, Melandri, Sylvan and Alex D? Its always the Americans especially NH that catches the flack. Fans love Colin because hes a 2 time WSBK champ. But he still hasn't done what NH has done.

Him and JH both have been in Motogp for more then 5 years and STILL haven't won a single race. NH at least won 3 races and had been at one point on the box consistently not to mention a WC title to boot.

So if your going to drink Hateraide then raise your glass to everyone equally not just the Americans.

Hacking wasn't born in the US, I believe he's British. He only just recently got his US citizenship from what I can remember. At any rate, why sack Hopkins when he's outperformed West the entire season? He's missed several races due to injury and still has more points than West (37 to 33), yet you guys want to keep West instead? Hopkins has 1 more 0points/DNF than West as well, but still 4 points above him. Out of the 3 races in which they both received points, West only score more points than Hopkins in ONE of those races (Brno).

Hopkins British Mother ?
