Heard it on the radio tonight - can't say I'm surprised - years away from home (for an Aussie), world champion on more than one machine, the only man ever capable of riding the Desmosedici, a new kiddie and family life, and a sharp reminder at the back end of last season what the risks are.
I for one hope he goes out as champion - he might not be the most charismatic man in the paddock, but he's awesome on the bike
Surely thats the door of opportunity opening for Marquez! Hope they conside Cal!
Cant see Honda going back to Dovi, dont think Rossi will be flavour of the month (but you never know). Seem to remember Hayden did not enjoy his time there but maybe ..
