And that's exactly why Simoncelli got the factory bike at Gresini...

There is no way Hiro gets a factory bike at honda before Simoncelli. And for anyone to say that Hiro is the better rider because of this years results needs to go back and look at the season where Marco missed a few races that he would easily had been on the podium and Hiro wouldn't have been.

Talent wise, I have to agree that Simoncelli is above Aoyama. But, the reason why Aoyama is leading this year's championship is because he is damn consistent and that definitely helps to keep points flowing in. Simoncelli is fast creeping up though, he has the most wins this season and might make it interesting near the end.
