While I admire anybody who can successfully race a bike I have to admit I was a bit disappointed at this news. I've done a few mini-tirades at the horrid state of AMA racing (or whatever it's called now), but letting one of these B-class riders loose on a MotoGP bike just seems dumb.
There are oodles and oodles of great MotoGP2 riders out there (Bradl, Marquez) as well as BSB guys like Shane Byrne or Tom Hill who just might be more deserving. Maybe it's $ and sponsorship, but I don't get it. Hell, I would call Yvon DuHamel back just to see the dust fly!
Remember when AMA racing was every bit as good as F1? Whaaaa happpened??
p.s. the Valencia race is on Speed Nov 6 LIVE! That's 8:00 a.m. EST.
