| But Corser is an ex World Champ on a Duke and was at the front on an Aprilia. I think he took the Petronas job when the possibility of being near the front was there, but when the 1000cc ruling came in it was clear they'd never reach it.
Karl Harris is in the factory Honda BSB team next year, so it's worked for him.
I can't think of a single example where running "well" at the back of the field on uncompetitive machinery has lead to a front running ride in the same series... |
