BSB gets another top rider |
Top rider ? Achievements of J. McWilliams :- 1) Assen GP250 win 2) erm.............. |
He's good enough for MotoGP pole position!!!! just never had the bikes to match his talent |
Here you go BC History Jez has spent most of his time racing against the worlds best, not taking the easier domestic route like some do. |
Oh dear, sorry chaps. No I'm not kidding ! just always found McWilliams massively over-rated (except for arrogance i.e. the difference between how good you think you are and how good you really are !) So he's raced against the world's best - what did he win (except Assen, granted) Always had inferior machinery - why didn't a top team give him a chance, if he was so good ? Statistics don't lie. Rossi is a top rider, McWilliams isn't. End of. |
each to their own and all that time will tell you don't run at the front of GPs and qualify on pole on a private bike without being very good also, remember how close he came to winning the British GP against Rossi and Roberts??? I bet he would have got a better ride if he didn't have a British passport |
Weeksy, of course I understand all that, I might be dim but I'm not THAT dim ! We just tend to be not-very-objective about home riders. It's too easy to say 'oh he never got the best kit' etc. My opinion is that he's an ok rider (by top standards !) who's done ok on ok bikes. And it's silly to say that if I don't understand what they do then I can't express an opinion, if that were the case none of us could ever express any opinion about any professional rider |
Time will tell |
Weeksy, I know It's all relative isn't it ! Chass, time will tell ? I'm sure McWilliams will do well in BSB and the series will be more interesting for his participation. My points were on his results and achievements to date. |
I always thought of Zezza as a top rider, in recent times his age and passport have worked against him, but he is very talented and very consistant. First time I really noticed him was when he stood in for someone on the Oxford Products Ducati and rode the wheels off it. |
