Yeah but I'm over the "he used to be good" thing, I'd rather see a series whereby the fastest riders out there are on display. Riders who are there "for old times sake" are taking up seats. I guess I agree with Kocinski in that respect.
Maybe a cap of 1 year on contract time length is the way to go? They could, and would, renegotiate after a year to keep good riders, or find a faster guy or at least take the risk in finding a faster guy.
The fact that all the rookies came in and slotted in mid pack to top says a lot to me about how stagnant the selection of riders has been for a while now.
Oh and on the who's gunna whoop who's ass thing ....... I think we will see that this weekend anyway.
