Not that this would be a surprise as he has struggled this year.
Who can we make an honoury Brit, so we have one of ours to support?

Can we put CAPI in front of the above please? :)

Did you notice how the red bikes went faster than the yellow ones at the weekend? Any idea here boys? :devil:

Hmmm - there must be pressure to get a British rider in there - Hodgson on the Dantin? Or the 2 Ilmor bikes are still riderless - Shakey?

I am a Bayliss fan, but I think Loris and Hayden had bigger fish to fry, so maybe he may not have won if that was not the case.

There is talk of that young guy Mcwiliams on a Ilmor.

the yellow ones were not Ducatis, and we all know yellow Ducatis are the fastest

Ellison dropped from GP

...yeah, it's all been down hill since I beat him in 1998 :lol:

:o

He'll be ok, he's one of the best riders Britain has. He still didn't get the same chassis as Checa, and towards the end of the season, he wasn't that far behind either.

Get him on a decent Superbike and he'll worry the top riders.

He is riding in the Valencia test for them at the moment after all.....

Really shame about Eillson but compared with Checca he was slow.
I really hope that Jezza is back in Motogp.. Ilmor couldn't do any worse. He knows the circuits and lets be honest he's not slow! Did some good work at KR.

However hopefully it's going to be Ducati's year.

Well, Hopkins is half British, so he'll do :)

I hope Ellison finds a decent ride somewhere, it'll be interesting to see how he goes on a different bike in a different class....Moto GP has definitely not made him look good.
