Well, we witnessed the the ..... in Melandris armor yesterday, he is ....... ......... Ok first race is kind of understandable, second race is inexcusable. Biaggi down, obviously going to score little if any points, and Melandri goes into win or bin mode. Sometimes you cant see the forest for the trees. Big picture Marco , big picture.

Oh, and a big congrats to Chaz Davies on his 1st WSBK win and his new ride for next year.
