Absolutely! If he has to start from mid pack every time he is a sitting duck! A good point was made by the commentators today that even if it were a good race between Rossi and Hayden they both have Melandri and Capirossi to deal with at the same time. Keeps it interesting anyway! At least we can look forward to seeing the new Ilmoor at the next race in Estoril!(loboboy @ Sep. 24 2006,11:14) well Honda is throwing the Championship away since they can't seem to fix the clutch problem. Nicky was doing great the first half of the year but since they started using next years designed clutch things have gone in the toilet and they don't seem to care.
Great Race for Cappirossi and Valentino but c'mon Honda this is rediculous. The biggest race team out there and they can't fix a clutch problem? WTF. Nicky deserves better IMO.
Sorry for the rant just a little frustrated.
