What can I say....

Its about time that the Double World Superbike Champion got the credit he so rightly deserves. JT all the way.
I appreciate that people like different sports but can someone please tell me why Lewis Hamilton is everyones favourite. What exactly has he done. Agreed he has had a great debut season in F1, but, and its a big but, he totally bottled it in the final race. And lets be honest, the guy has NO personality. In years to come, I have no doubt that he will become F1 Champion, and he will no doubt win the SPOTY in the future. But the contest is for 2007 and JT has achieved so much more.
If JT can't win because of the politics within the BBC, then its Joe Calzaghe..

Even though JT is a world champion at his sport he has absolutely no chance of winning this. Unlike other countries, in Britain motorcycle racing is only popular with a small minority and receives very little media exposure. Now if he was a show jumper then he would be a dead cert. As a Yorkshireman I fully support JT but in this instance my vote must go to Joe Calzhage, 10 years as WC beating the best in the world - no contest really!

Hawkeye,i agree with you.BBC have chosen 10 people for sports personality and ive just watched the preview,no mention of Toseland.Paula Radcliffe is chosen and shes only raced 2 races.Wilkinson has only played a few world cup games,he's in??? Murray has been injured most of the year,he's in???
Even footballers were shown and there aren't any footballers in the chosen 10???
Maybe if a member of the Royal family won the tiddly wink championship they would be a cert,lol
Toseland or Calzhage should win,but of course will have no chance

Money has to be on Lewis Hamilton for the win, unlike the F1 title!!

Last bike rider to win it was Barry Sheene. Foggy never had a chance, I guess he didnt have a personality! That was not a problem for Steve Davis or Nigel Mansell though...

Has to be Lewis Hamilton, simply because his every move makes the front 3 pages in thee tabloids here. When JT won the double it was a tiny colum on page 36 of a couplee of tabloids.

Why has the money got to be on Lewis Hamilton. Just because his every move makes the papers. This is a vote by the public for their choice of SPOTY. Then again, it is a BBC phone vote and I can't see many people having much faith in them anymore.

JT did win the Look North TV sports personality in 2004 and he's up for it again this year so I will be voting for him. Fortunately the only Royal family we vote for up here is Ricky Tomlinsons lot...lol

if some of those 120,000 of us who went to brands to see the double vote for him then who knows, he does deserve it! biking should have more coverage esp when u consider the amount who turn up at brands every year, more than go to silverstone for the F1

Brendan,
I couldn't agree with you more. Brands this year was amazing what with the double and JT's rendition of the National Anthem. I couldn't see the likes of Lewis Hamilton doing something like that at the F1 at Silverstone.
To everyone who was there, or even if you just like bikes, or even if you just fancy JT (my wife tells me he's rather horny) lets all vote for him. And maybe, just maybe we could cause an upset.
