i don't really want to see WSBK dumbed down any... however i also have long not understood how the rules there were so liberal.  it's basically just production cases and chassis, that's it.

I don't see Aprilia moving to full blown MotoGP. I think they're happy with their performance in WSBK and leading the CRT parade. I think they're even happier that they can consistently beat the satellite Ducs.

agreed.  however using 39 wsbk engines in a season is retarded.  and a problem.

More reasons for them not to want to go to MotoGP.

Interesting situation.  Surprised that a reigning world champion would be left out in the cold without a ride (so far).  Also, really not looking forward to what Dorna might do to WSBK.

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw that—it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

Email messages to Biaggi requesting comment were ignored, and we would not have it any other way.
