Don't know about you lot, but I'm really looking forward to seeing how Shane gets on this weekend (and next) given a chance on a Honda.
It reminds me of a few years back when Sean Emmett was riding for Harris in GP 500, and after giving 100% race after race on an uncompetitive bike, he was suddenly out of the blue given a ride on the Lucky Strike Suzuki after Shwantz crashed and broke his arm. From battling at the tail end to battling for a podium! It was great stuff to read about (he wrote for fast bikes at the time) and had me transfixed week after week.
So what do we thnk is going to happen to Byrne? Its already been said its a bit of a double edge sword...will he struggle like Bayliss at two tracks he doesn't know that well, or will he pull the ride of the century out of the bag and grab some serious points and subsequent exposure n the process?
Just interested...
