Eugene Laverty will win the crown on the Factory Aprilia in 2012.

I expect great things from him. My only concern is whether or not he will play second fiddle to Max.
I will say this, I know I am enjoying my new toy, so I am sure he is enjoying his.

We'll see, if he outpaces Max from the get-go, I doubt he'll be second fiddle.

Someone should sign that guy!

Simo looked awfully good on it...

After meeting Eugene's brother at VIR where he was testing with Celtic Racing at the 3-day event we ran in '09, all I can say is the Laverty's (and the Celtic Racing crew) are top class, through and through. I'll be rooting for him in WSBK next year for sure.

His brother was there? I didn't notice anyone else once Melissa Paris showed up.

Yeah, on the last (3rd) day. They were setup on their own on the hot pit. They were spinning tires about halfway round the rim that day because it was so hot and grippy.

Update: Alan Cathcart rides Biaggi's RSV4, and basically gushes over it.

I'll say it again, Laverty is my pick for 2012 WSBK Champ.
