Don't kick Frankie...he's the crowd favourite and still extremely quick. His teammate on the otherhand isn't consistently fast enough.

As a depatch rider who dislocated (not even broke) my collarbone I have upmost respect for Frankie. Riding a bike after two weeks off was uncomfortable (but I did cos I was skint). To race a bike, with a BROKEN collarbone takes real guts, especially without poverty spurring you on.
Much as I would love to see new faces in WSBK you have to accept that Frankie has achieved more on the GSX-R at world level than anyone else. |

"boot" was the wrong word. i am a frankie fan too, but for a few unlucky incidents frankie would be challenging for the wsbk title. i've said it before and i will go to the grave saying it, suzuki need to run 3 bikes in wsbk and 500gp......geeeeeez i want to see mladin riding in europe in 2001.
