I have a feeling that eventually Spies is going to get his shit together and be a force to reckon with. He really could not put a season together this year but the underlying skill is there somewhere, and I'm sure he'd love to have the last laugh. |

I want to see him in WSBK (I want to see everyone in WSBK though). Hopefully Suzuki has a new gix for '13 though. Their GP bike might also be ready for next year. Hard to argue with history, but I doubt they'd make a come back unless they knew they could build a competitive package. |

It's one thing when both riders on a team are struggling, but not many excuses when your teammate is winning or in the top three. He has a history with the speculated other manufacturer, maybe they can develop a world class bike together...AJ |

| Bat Crazed Joined: May 2009 From: WA I Ride: 08, R1 | I would bet Cal, would have bet on Marquez. But the rules say no the first year; It will be intestesting...AJ |

Wouldn't surprise me if he jumped though. It would be interesting to see him on a competitive bike with a competitive team mate again. Would still like to see Dovi or Cal. |

A lot of rumors about Cal taking Hayden's spot next year. Duc giving Rossi the 75 degree engine this week and the outcome of the relationship should be decided soon based on the results. |
