Ben Spies fourth fastest in Valencia end of season test.Well he certainly appears to found out where the go switch is on that Yamaha !.
What about Rossi's interview where he states it is either him or Lorenzo at Yamaha in 2011 ?,interesting stuff.Is he already considering a move to Ducati ? (especially if Stoner follows Suppo to Honda).
Neil Hodgson is confirmed to be returning to BSB with Yamaha.Be interesting to see if he can still cut it ?.Think he may find it tougher than he expects TBH.Anyway another big name in the series has got to be good for the championship I suppose ?.

Huge congrats to Hiroshi Aoyama,last ever 250cc world champion and I reckon its fair to say he did not have championship winning machinery at his disposal this year.
GP race was a bit boring,what the hell happened to Stoner ? :S
As for Ben Spies,what a star.Got to be impressed with that performance.Expecting him to upset quite a few big names next year.

Big four at the front again but Mr.Spies is certainly getting to grips with a GP bike now isn't he ?.Tomorrow should be good.

Ben Spies is 15th in FP1 for Valencia. Toseland not too far ahead in 13th.
Yeah,just this minute got in from work and it was the first thing I checked !.Be unfair and unrealistic to expect miracles from Spies this weekend but reckon its fair to say he won't exactly make a fool of himself.A top 10 race finish would be a very good result and I reckon he can do that.Next year Edwards will be his yardstick,he has pretty much blown Toseland away this year but I reckon Spies will give him a bit more hassle.
I wouldn't be surprised if Spies ends up ahead....
Me neither,but have to admit I would love to see those two running together in the race,both will be desperate to beat the other !.
Stoner is fastest again. The World Championship would have been so different I think if he was like this all year.
Yep,CS has opened one huge can of whoopass in the last few races.Without his medical problem it would have been a 3 way fight for the title this year for sure.Interested to read Livio Suppo (Ducati MotoGP boss) and Davide Tardozzi (Ducati WSBK boss) both announced they are leaving the company with pretty much immediate effect.Suppo is taking up a position at Honda MotoGP while its unknown where Tardozzi is going.Seems very strange for both of them to leave at once,anyone betting on bike no.27 being a Honda in 2011 ?.
Right,off to post a bike question in the quiz now ! :)

It looks pretty much like the WSB from this year.
If he does beat JT will that not make it even worse, that he was beat by the man taking his job, on a bike that looks like his will next year.....
I'm really hoping to see a big fighting end to his stint in GP, but I think it will be more like Spies at the back with vermeulen, espagaro, and JT just in front.
I hope I'm proved wrong!

Looks like Shakey isn't going to be around in WSB next year, though I'm sure a BSB team might want to pick him up.
Yeah,it looks like it game over for his (technically bankrupt) team,real shame as Shakey was really starting to come good towards the end of the season.He deserves to be there next year (as does Camier,although he must have a stakes on the 2nd Aprilia ride) IMO.Be a shame but saying that I would welcome him back to the BSB,he would run at the front on a decent bike for sure.

Me too, I think Crutchlow will do well in WSB (probably an understatement!), I wouldn't be surprised to see him in GP in a few years.
Similar for Rea too.
I really hope Toseland does well next year, he's already improved from last year already! I think he would have given alot for consistant 7/8 th finishes this year.
