Suzuki and Mat

....are the class of Superbike. Bad attitude and all. Check the lap time differentials...incredible.

I'm just getting into watching the Moto GP and AMA races, and it looks like Mat cleans up in AMA. Has he had the chance to go to Moto GP? It would be cool to see what he could do there.

no kiddin, right? wasn't he like 2.5 seconds ahead of the field after the first lap before they had the re-start? he's unbelievable

good to see the USA starting to make a good represenation in MotoGP, too

Mladin did his time in 500 GP years ago. He has ZERO reason to go back into that.

He makes a pile of cash on the best bike in the paddock. He knows the tracks and is home during the week.

Why be on the road 24/7, learing unfamiliar tracks and on a bike which may be a customer bike??

He has a great deal here and he knows it.

Part of the reason why you'll likely see Hodgson go back next year. Unless he's under contract of course. Aside from that, I found it even more amazing how Yates caught Hodgson so fast @ the end of the race. That was 100% bike as he is not close to Hodgsons level. Even the "cheat" Ducatis can't run against the GSXR. The bike is awesome. Makes me woinder what that zx10 would be doing with factory support. Thumbs up to Hayes for the 5th place finish with the un-supported Attack team.

I'll bet that E Boz will be looking for a new ride next year. He has been less than spectaular on the Ducati, now in his second season. Ducati may bring a European rider, next year, as I'm sure they're not happy about how they've been running this year. The Suzuki is dominating in every national series and now on the World SBK stage. This is beginning to look like the WSBK series of a couple years ago. I was excited to see more factory support in World SBK, but we need much more here in the USA, if anyone can be expected to stop Suzuki.
