Yes it is!
Mladin is indeed a machine, but everyone knows how "exciting" GP was when Doohan owned the joint for five consecutive years. It kinda feels he same. Heck, if Mladin can do it again... so be it. It would just be nice to have a couple others make the dude have to really sweat for it... mm-kay?
For Honda, this whole "kit parts" situation could go either way... and for everyone's sake, lets hope things get better than their first day of test at Daytona. If American Honda can't make this new arrangement work, or unless Neil can pull off the heist of the century, I don't see 2005's results being much different.
