I'm not denying the fact that he was fast and he did out qualify the works dukes on some occasions and to be fair he did suffer some mechanical problams, but if he could've had one more year in motogp on the duke or any other bike in a satelite team or whatever I think he would've improved ten fold. It would've led to a full on works ride somewhere. He hasn't had enough time in the class to develop. There was a rumour that Suzuki were interested, but obviously that never came off. |
