Nori really does deserve a championship, and i know he moved to Ducati to accomplish that.... but its gonna be really ironic when Spies shows up and replaces him and wins one with Yamaha.

ya know from watching the clip a couple times it seems to me fab tried an intimidation move and spies refused to give an inch. Can def see when fab realises the lines were gonna cross and tries for some lean he didnt have. wondering if anyone saw the same thing.

That's what I've been thinking all along...if Haga loses to someone on a Yamaha I bet a lot of Japanese fans will be .

I like Haga but am pulling for Spies all the way.

Spies likes to have fun...here's a blurry shot of him I got at VIR last year putting on his "O" face.



There was some other riders there...must be rookies or something.



Spies and a few others...









The snack cart...

I agree spies is all business at work which I respect but there is a fun side to him. We were also at VIR last year. My daughter wanted to get his autograph so we stood in the LONG line so she could meet him. When we got there she was so shy she hid behind my back. Ben stood up reached around me and tickled her. He said something like see I don't bite I tickle I thought that was funny and sweet. My daughter now watches every race and screams at the TV for "Her Ben" to win

Fab wasn't nearly far enough forward for Ben to yield. Fab came in hot from way far back. Even if he hadn't tucked the front he would have hit Ben, as Ben wouldn't have been able to yield. No warning.
