    I'd say Nicky is finally just getting to grips with the Big Red, and is having a relatively decent season. I don't think Roger Lee has the skills considering he is running around at the back of the SBK pack, albeit on an under powered bike.

    Yep, I take my hat off to Mr Rossi, he rode well. And also well done to my man Nicky for coming No1 of the yanks. Ok Ben Spies had a wee excursion but thats not the point.

    Yep, a good race......................is it just me or does Lorenzo have no charisma at all, when he goes off and does those stunts after the race it's just not the same as when Rossi does it

    I think that's because it looks like he's just copying what Rossi did in the past
