Rea is probably one of the best British talents there is. He over-acheives every round (when he stays on it) on that Fireblade and I'm surprised he's stayed loyal to Honda so long.
I hope he stuffs Rossi and gets somewhere in the top 8

Fleegle said: So, are you saying Blades are s  tters? It would help if HRC built a bike for wsbk, a nom factory bike built by a team that simply have lost the plot isn't ever winning against full factory bikes. Also worth bearing in mind that the Kawasaki & Aprilia teams have done 3 times the testing Ten Kate have.

That is pretty impressive for Rea to be that close to Bradl. Bradl seems to be struggling a but, but he was testing the Factory bike so maybe he is still finding his feet too.

Let's be honest...Moto GP field is that depleted, all JR needs to do is ride around at the back, he'll still get a few points

That is bloody fantastic - so close to Spies' time after 2 days on the bike.
I wonder if Cal is getting a bit twitchy!

There are noises being made that the Gresini bike may be a possibility for Redding !
