Default Toseland axed. Edwards for Aprilia. And so on ...

Marco Simoncelli signs for Honda at Assen GP. Toseland axed, Edwards for Aprilia WSB news - SuperBike magazine UK for motorbike reviews, motorcycle clothing and accessories tests, used motorbike reviews plus bike wallpaper

I think Colin will stay and form "Team Texas" with Spies.

He was probably referring to actually being able to WIN again. It's been quite a few years for poor Colin. Get him back to WSBK were he belongs. Will be good to see Biaggi, Colin, Toseland, Vermeulen all in WSBK where they belong next year.

fast or not, there won't be many people getting by rossi, stoner, and lorenzo this year or next... the pace up front is absolutely blistering now... if you're first behind those guys you're still doing pretty damn well if you ask me

Very true, but some guys are HAPPY to be behind those guys and some guys are hungry to get in front of them through hard work and whatever other means necessary. I think Edwards would pull into the pits before he passed Rossi as not to fracture his "friendship".

Refer to the prev thread you left when the "results" you speak of were in Nicky's favor. I know you're a "results" guy, but they really hurt Colin's credibility when put against Nicky's. Or are you going to change your tune again and say you like him cuz he's "funny".

Care to wager that the 2006 MotoGP World Champion is still in MotoGP next year? I'll put a few hundred $$ on that with the proceeds going to charity.

And thanks for the links, gonna order a bunch of stuff from those guys tonight.

When Hayden won the Championship his speech should have been "Wow I won it...I rather be lucky than good any day"

All the Hayden's are washed up and just to ruffle some feather's
What is up with Tommy Hayden on the Yoshimura Suzuki with that type of equipment you should be at least on the podium.

So that's a NO, Colin won't win a race before he gets the boot at the end of the season? At least he's funny.

Why would Colin get the boot? For riding well and having a fantastic season where he has absolutely demoralized his highly rated teammate who decided to pull a fast one and swap engineers behind Colin's back?

Cuz he's afraid to pass Rossi cuz Rossi might stop being his friend.
