WSBK » Lavilla returns to replace Roberts

Sorry for Roberts, but very pleased to see Greg on the bike!

Yep, it was a travesty that Lavilla didn t have a ride.

I can't wait to see Gregorio back in action and I feel that he's at his best on a Ducati. Hopefully he'll be mixing it with the factory guys.

Let's hope Laville can mix it up in the top 10.

Watch your back shakey! This boys quick on a duke! Looking forward to the bsb champs battling it out on privateer dukes, think they'll only be one winner though - that guy on the left!

This is the ride lavilla should have had all along. Good luck Greg its a good opportunity

This guy sure has a loyal following but I'm not sure why? In 180 starts he has 0 wins, 0 poles and only 12 podiums! Not trying to start any **** here, I just don't get it.

He was very good in BSB.

He's a fantastically talented rider and an honourary Brit. You can have all the talent in the world but very rarely do you get talent/money/good machinery/team. When you do you have the Rossi/Spies scenario when you dont you have riders like Lavilla showing genius on the rare occasion it all falls into place. That first time he rode at Thruxton never seeing the place before on the Suzuki was nothing short of incredible. When on the Aiwaves Duc winning with slicks on in pissing rain at Brands those type's of rides show the real natural ability of a rider. Good luck Grego. Bad luck to Brenda because he also is very very good but still young so it will come.

Jake,

He won the BSB championship at his first attempt - not even Baylis managed that!

Plus he's never had a race winning package in WSB. He was on 750 Kawasaki's and Suzuki's when the 1000 twins were dominating and when he was on the 1000 Suzuki, it was the first year of the 1000s and the bike had a restrictor on it as the organisers were worried it would be quicker than the Ducatis.
