There are a few tracks that Nicky has Dani's measure, even on the 800's.

If Colin wins a race i would be so over the moon for him... it must be an awful feeling not winning any in several years including a factory ride.

You guys are going overboard. Never on the podium again? Never winning another race? I'm gonna save this thread and repost it when Nicky does one or both in the near future.

Agreed. Nicky needs to take a page out of the Carlos Checa book of racing. Get a factory Honda seat in WSBK. Ducati doesn't look to be needing him, as they would say it or there would be rumors of talking between the two.

Maybe when he's a bit older.. Nicky's only 26 or something, he's not that desperate yet surely!
I think its a bit silly that people are saying he'll never win a race again, or not even be on the podium. He was a world champion on the Honda, and you don't achieve that for nothing. Once he gets the right set up again he'll be back on the podium, plus he's got quite a few more years left yet. As for winning this year in the US, very unlikely due to everyone having more experience at Laguna this time round. I'll go with Stoner I think this year, and I have no idea for Indy

To reinstate what I've said, Nicky will not win any of the US races.
His best shot would be Laguna, but seeing how last year went before the race, he will be happy to have just a top 10.

i reckon he will surprise us all and win at laguna. the support he will have there will be enough for honda to give him whatever he needs and he will really want this win..

I'm not seeing a win for my boy this year, unless the new bullet is a real beast then he will have problems with tire management I think. He might get a podium before the year is out and Laguna would be a good bet, but look for Rossi to win Laguna....geez I can't believe I'm saying this....just double checking to make sure I don't have a "Mig" or an "Angel" in my avatar.

Right out of a page of Lexicon's conspiracy book hahah
I think that Jumkie would not be that pissed if Hayden doesn't win the race, I mean its kind of expected, so...It HAS to be better than last year though, which would be really nice.
Rossi may win Laguna but he will not run away with it. He has never gone good there, I think that he would be happy with a podium.
