Just finished reading the Mick Doohan book and one of the things that struck me was how critical Doohan was of Honda, how left to their own devices (like when he was injured or over the winter) Honda would go off in the wrong direction, and how it took Doohan and Burgess to keep them pointing in the right direction...

Who's driving Honda development forward now?
