Mladin is in kind of strange situation. He is way too good for AMA but not good enough for MotoGP. World Superbike is an option but I don't think the money is all the much better than AMA and not enough to leave the US where Matt is obviously comfortable.
I once had high hopes for Yates and E Bostrom. Both are just horribly inconsistent.
Yates can ride, he's to big for 600's, he should have won Pikes Peak but he bobbled (I think his tires were gone) on the last lap and wasn't that E Bostrom that passed him on the Duc for the win. Too many bros racing and I get them mixed up. :)
Spees is a comer.
Yeah ~ I think Mladin likes it here, I know Suzuki gives him big $$ to race in this country.
