<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Tom @ Jun 13 2007, 03:18 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}><div class='quotemain'>This is one theory, but how about thinking about the fact that the Bridgestone are the majority supplier now, and Honda are struggling this year eliminating most Michelin runners. The other significant Michelin is Edwards, and hes .....

Depends what you belive I guess. True, Bridgestone have more bikes than they did last year, but my point is that on a whole, theyre performing better than Michelins. It does seem to me like only the best Michelin riders can get good results this year, and Riders or bikes which previously were grid fillers are now coming to the top, and they're on Bridgestones. I'm just putting 2 and 2 together here. Massive Japanese company vs. tiny French company, which no longer has the tyre rule working to it's advantage, and Factory Yamahas and Hondas struggling to eep up while Ducatis and Suzukis take win after win. I know the idea of a Ducati winning is not new, but this level of consistency is. I think it spells the end of almost two decades of Michelin dominance.
 
If Westy gets a ride on the Kwak for Donington it will be a perfect opportunity to stake his claim for a seat in GP for 2008.. With an increase in GP teams etc, I think he'll be in with a shot..
 
He better win, or else he'd be bringing down the average for us Aussies this year

Seriously though, I'd love to see a Kawasaki win, and if west at a semi-flooded Donnington is the way it has to happen, bring it on!
