NEVER been won by a rider on his first try that NEVER had any previous or wildcard 250cc rides,or a rider who wins his first race starting at the back of the grid.....A genius of which hahahonda will try to steal him too??? I hope he rides for Aprilia in MotoGP next year,Shane Byrne looks like the other rider for them. That is something for Aprilia to celebrate,together with the Constructors Champions in the 125cc&250cc gives them half as in 50% of all the possible 04' GP Championships As for Valentino, happy and sad that he is moving on, looks like at Yamaha he has his work cut out for him, but as per last night and previous races he only rides at 80% and still beats them,how fast can he really go??? If he wins at Yamaha he will be the GREATEST rider in history,already the only rider who has 50% start/win rate and 355 points in a season,and 22 cons. podiums....GENIUS Only bitch is SIX-MONTHS wait till 04' season......
