Anyway, read Moody's lastest silly season report here. It's an interesting read if follow this kind of stuff.

Suzuki will have two very promising young riders in their team. Will they be able to develop the bike, though.

I think it was Sito Pons who was impressed by Vermin's ability to interpret what the bike was doing and what the engineers were saying. I'm pretty sure I remember Gerrit Ten Kate saying the same thing. I wouldn't be suprised if Chris ended up being quite a handy development rider as well.

I think his signing with Suzuki could end up being a very smart move. Especially now that Paul Denning appears to have improved the communications between the team and the factory. Hopkins was certainly impressed with the changes he has brought to the team.

I wonder if Chris had a chat to Colin Edwards about Honda asking him to stay in WSB for another year
