Again, with all due respect, more money spent on something does not necessarily equate with better anything (just ask George Steinbrenner or the builders of the Titanic). The functional value of money can be greatly diminished if not totally negated if not spent wisely/correctly. In WSBK, the RC45 had more money invested in its development/operation than any bike in the history of production motorcycle racing but it was only able to win one title against the less powerful (but better handling and more tractable Ducatis).
