Mat Mladin has responded to the speculation of him using Q tires at his test in Philip Island in his segment from www.superbikeplanet.com. He's really straight to the point and in my opinion he's right on. There is also some talk of a US round in WSB soon, his reasoning in staying in America and why Rossi could win on Dunlops. Check out the full article here.
 
Man that took a while to read. It was intresting but why couldn't he just say "Troy, you're jealous, mate"?
 
Because Mat likes to toy with other riders and beat around the bush so that way when the other rider makes a comment in response Mat can maneuver out of his words. He's crafty like that.

I personally like Mat's confidence in Bayliss this season, Mladin can be an okay guy from time to time.
 
Half the world's got that confidence in Bayliss though.
Corser's gonna be a lot stronger than I assumed, too. I just hope he dosen't keep this off track behaviour up. He'll end up like Stoner. Him and Mat are mates, and it's bad enough when you lose mates in competition (Rossi and Gibernau, prime example) But when theyre not even racing in the championship..... that's bad.
Mladin also made some good points about Dunlops. One of their main problems is theyre on the uncompetitive bikes.
 
Eventhough I am not a big fan of Matt's personality I respect him for what he has done.
This was a good article. Good to see him shoot back at Corser.
