As much as I'd love to see him regularly on local tracks he deserves to stay in the WSB paddock I reckon.

He's been shafted by Kwacka!

Tend to agree Tony, but it would be fantastic if he could come back and lift the BSB title - not that its going to be anything like easy Re: Shakey etc.

Perhaps it could then be a springboard to go with Suzuki back into WSB ???

PS - The Crash.net site really does what it says on the can to my Firefox browser every now and then - freezes it solid, especially when turning pages.

Could well be I reckon, Rizla certainly have the cashola to take that team to WSB and Buckmaster appears to be the man to do it now he's in charge. He has a good rep as a manager.

Fingers crossed for the Stalker!

Good move.

Not good enough for WSB so hopefully do better in BSB.

Erm....'scuse me

Wins in the wet, when all around fell.

Top Kawasaki rider above a guy placed second in the championship only a couple of years previous.

Hmmmm, to say that someone who has won a race in a championship isn't good enough to be there seems an odd statement.

I think Chris is a great rider and a great guy. He has never really had the machinery in WSB to win it has he?

Would be great to see him back in the UK though....
