He finished in what? 16? After falling pretty far behind the pack after his run-off. Incredible rider.

Oh and thx for the feed Trip!
I agree...the wife and I were watching Race 2 lastnight and said the same thing. I watched most all of MotoGP last year and only some WSB and I now am beginning to like WSB more.

I will continue to watch both and some AMA as well but WSB is winning me over.

They only showed Spies going off the second time the during the highlights at the end of the race...but I did notice him drop in the standing.

The RSV looks fast enough, but I'm guessing it or Max was hard on the tires.

Max pushes a front harder than any other rider I have ever seen. He will get his set up right eventually but he is handicapped in that he only knows one way to go fast. Champions know how to go fast with almost any set up deficiency or problem they encounter...
