Q When Spies rode at Portimao, and in one day went as fast as Corser and Haga, it was a sad day for Corser and Haga.
A Yes. [Laughing]
Q So let me ask you this about MotoGP: Your name is obviously associated with it because of the success that you had there; and things are not so good in MotoGP right now. I wonder your thoughts on MotoGP in '09.
A My thoughts are, they're spending too much money and they don't earn all that money. Many sponsors has run away. I have been there for a decade, ten years and more, and I saw so many big sponsor leave, and nothing came in. I remember with Lucky Strike, Rothmans, there was HB, there was West, and Gauloises. Every one was driven away. They go away. And nothing replaced them. You see any new sponsor?
Q No.
A No. That means that this game, it doesn't really suit them any more. Suit these big sponsor any more. Big sponsor choose something different, maybe for less money or more exposure. Because what they're asking is a lot of money. In Superbike, it just more right, the numbers are more correct. What you invest and what you get in return is, well proportioned. How do you say it?
Q It makes financial sense?
A Yeah. It's making really financial sense. For example, is MotoGP where many factory run away, go out, in Superbike, manufacturer come in. That's simple explanation.
Q. Final question Max. Your girlfriend, Eleonora Pedron, is a former Miss Italy and starlet. Her picture is the on computers desktops of men all over the world. There are fan sites devoted to her. How do you deal with that, or don't you even think about it?
A. Certainly she is beautiful and that's why I chose her. But, in answer to your question, Dean, I will say this: sometimes, at night, I wake up and I look over at her and then I think, 'Life is really good' you know? (Laughs)

Ya know, it wouldn't have taken too much energy from superbikeplanet to throw a gratuitous pic of Max's girlfriend somewhere in the article. I mean, what's wrong with journalism nowadays? More pictures, less writing!
