Am so pleased Shinya hasn't been pushed out of racing. Like Guintoli, they've never been provided with the "top-shelf" MotoGP bikes so have only ever been pretty mediocre in the points and (perceived) talent. It's a shame Guintoli wasn't offered a WSB ride, as the series has been (let's be honest) far more exciting to watch than MotoGP these last couple of years.

Would be interested to know what the TV viewing figures of WSB are like over the last few years. Bet they've been steadily growing again. Seems to be getting more and more popular with race fans as the place for thrilling action (as also noted by Mr Rossi).

Good luck to Shinya, I'll be rooting for him, he's a true gentleman.

LOL... wow there are some really jealous people on here! Even though the best racers in the world past and present regard Rossi as probably the best there has ever been, people will always try and put his achievements down to best bike, best engineer, conspiracy theories about how everyone elses bike was made slower etc etc.... funny stuff!

No doubt Belinda and her PR savvy chums are reading these posts, and perhaps we might even get a PR savvy post from Belinda at the BBC telling of her and her team's passion for the sport, but I have just one question... After obtaining the live rights to MotoGP in 2009, how IN ANY WAY has the coverage changed since 2008 when Eurosport coverage was broadcast live? Just one example will do! Crap... Eurosport has been miles better this year in that it's in widescreen and no commercial breaks during races. Just give us Randy Mamola back on the team and a live race and it will be PERFECT!!!!

fanofthesport, here is the clip I promised. Bear in mind these guys are not discussing Haga or Spies (although they agree Spies thoroughly deserved the championship), it is about Fabrizio's behavior in the last few rounds as a team mate. I know everyone looks at bike riding as an individual sport, but these 3 discuss it from a team's point of view... see it before I get banned from YouTube... Go to YouTube and type in: WSB Fabrizio Go to 3.41 into the clip... What do you think Tardozzi said to Fabrizio in the pits?

"He's Irish right? It does seem as though the Brits claim him as one of their own. " I suggest you do a little research (the internet is very useful you know!), in not only the difference between Britain and The United Kingdom, but also the difference between Northern and Southern Ireland... One is United Kingdom, one is not... Go Johnny, us in Yorkshire are cheering for you!

""Jesus Robert this isn't your site you know." Why did you say that? Yes he posts on here a lot but he's probably one of the most polite people on here! Even FU (Feelings Understood!) is polite! :-) Go Robert!

"DeAngelis, on his satellite honda, lead warm up with a 1:30.8 ahead of Rossi and Stoner. He wants a job next year." Yikes, I saw it live... makes me shudder... Torpedo waiting to happen! If he takes ANY rider out with delusions of grandeur then he should be forced to participate in the BBC's Strictly Ballroom Dancing On Ice etc... Know your place this far into the championship Alex!
