Saw Lanzi at Valencia in 2003 in the first World Superstock race on the 999, left everyone for dead (and that was a 999S) including all the GSXR Thou boys, since then I've been keeping an eye on this fella.
He is however a factory rider already, and I'd say without a shadow of a doubt will be on one of the full factory bikes either next year or 2007 depending if Bayliss makes his return
