    If the bike becomes as competitive as it promised to be at the Sepang test, things will be a lot more exciting over the next couple of seasons. I've always thought that Aleix Espargaro was one of the most underrated riders in MotoGP.

    So wait, Pol or Aleix is signed with Aprilia for the next two years? :confused:

    Aleix. Pol is in line to leave KTM and take Alex Márquez's seat at Repsol.

    Aleix is #1 though. I think you have your brothers backwards. Pol is #2

    Ok that's what I thought. Just wasn't entirely sure if another surprise move occurred and Pol ended up at Priller since technically there's no confirmation of him signing with Honda yet. The way everybody had worded their responses had me confused for a moment.

    Ill just say this: Aleix is like the most underrated rider in the paddock. He's better than Crutchlow.

    So you’re saying he has a better pace that Crutchlow?

    Not much of a happening, but a funny story nonetheless. Apparently Miguel Oliveria raced in the Portugese Superbike Championship at Estoril last weekend, on an all-white Yamaha R1. He DESTROYED the competition, winning the 15-lap race one by 45 seconds, and the red-flagged race two by 8 seconds.

    And Mesa is mad about PJ racing in MotoAmerica :crackup:

    Links below in Portugese, so get our your Google Translate.

    Ha. That would be fun to have A Motogp Star in your superbike race.
    But 3 seconds a lap. Cmon guys.

    Alessandro Gramingni was a former 125GP World Champ when he came to AMA for a short engagement in 1996. It was interesting.

    Is that like cleaning up against children at the electric go kart place?

    Um, no. Power to weight ratio in most carts mean the little kids that can drive will kick my 180lb ass.
