Sorry,need to add I think we should keep an eye on Rubens Xaus(have I spelt that right?)as long as he keeps it up-right.(Although he won't have Carl to give him a kick up the bum this year)

If Chris Walker is at full fitness he could shine, but really the championship is between Haga, Edwards and Bayliss over the whole season. Xaus, Bostrom, Hodgson & Izutsu (Sugo) will win races, but won't be up there enough to win the championship i don't think.

Yes,Troy Bayliss and Colin Edwards are the "easy" riders to pick out but what if you stuck your neck out a bit further,who else?
My riders would be Ruben Xaus and Ben Bostrom.As for Neil Hodgson and Chris Walker,I find it too easy to over look Neil and I don't think Walker will be up to speed this year(but it would be great to see those two battling together again) Would anyone else like to stick there necks out?go on be brave!! |

Bayliss said himself, its between him, Edwards and Haga...I think Hodgson, Bostrom, Chili, Xaus will all have a go at them !

No one but no one else but Bayliss will win it this year.
He has the bike, he has the talent and he now has the experience to beat each and everyone all the time. Outsidres with a chance are Chili and maybe Haga if the bike is sorted. Hodge will win a race in UK as usual. Edwards will hate being on Michelins, Bostrom will love them but go slow when Dunlop are ****. Some rank outsider will win Sugo on an RC30 missile then do nothing in WSB next year, Walker will I have to say be a dissapointment. Sounds like he has some sort of prolonged facial injury that means his face hurts all the time, sounds like Criville fever to me. I would also like to see Lavilla do well just to rub Frankies whining nose in it. |

I reckon Ruben will be kicking some serious ass this year, but as pointed out to me all the tracks he went well on last year were michlin suited!

Only real challenges Bayliss has are Edwards, Xaus, Haga and Bostrom...as long as Haga's Aprilia is always top, he'll win !

That's really sticking your neck out f2001,well done.I would also have said the name James Haydon if he was doing a full season.I think he's a very hard rider,this has of course lead to him falling off once or twice!!!but with Carl on his shoulder putting him right I think he's a rider to watch out for in the future.(the same could also be said for Xaus)

Edwards is on the downhill side. Don't think he will ever win another championship. He is losing the mental edge.

I watched Edwards in superpole,his back end was stepping out at nearly every corner,he wasn't like that last year.It was good to watch but I don't think it was making him go fast,strange to see a riders style change(unless it was the tyres causing the problem)

Rubens Xaus was the best in the last few races last year but **** before that. I dont know how he will do this year and the reasons he was so good at Assen but if he rides like that this year I think he will win the title.
Whats wrong with Walker??? |
