Marco is definitely fast. The question is whether or not his inability to run a clean season is going to end up costing him a lenghty MotoGP career. Flame me if you want, but I've seen enough crash prone riders get to the top class and find out that the memory span for crashes isn't as short.

No room for factory rides that get chucked down the track on regular occasions during the year. If you're fast enough maybe you retain a satellite ride(ex. de Puniet), but if he loses standings/championships crashing with the big boys the way he did in the 250's, the 2011- FACTORY offers will quickly evaporate. Even Jorge will have some tough critics if he loses another title shot on DNFs.

Soon to be fastest rookie but not rookie of the year as he will mirror his WSB ride Fast but erratic.

Simonsilly has a long way to level with the fired former riders. Would gladly surprise me if he ever does it any better tough.

Simoncelli and Melandri should make a good team. Glad to see Melandri back with Gresini and good on him for doing well with the Kawi. These guys should surprise a few at Honda, next year will be interesting.

'T' is for TEAM..he's put the '58' on his mudgaurd so one must assume that he's contemplating a number change this year ?? I can't imagine any other reason why he'd make such a statement as the riders are required to have 'identifying numbers or team marks.'
