| After watching Emmett on the ETI at Castle Combe and comparing it to his performances on the Monster Mob 999 I would say the 998 was a better bike for him
The same also applies to Frankie Chilli the 998 being a lot better chasis for him.
I'm of the opinion that if Toseland had been running a works 998 with the latest spec engines his reults would be no worse than they were and could even have been better.
As for Hodgson I would like to see him retain a top ride, he is still one of the few riders that could quallify a WCM 500 alongside Doohan on the front row of a GP grid. |
