Chris V officially signs with Suzuki

What is he thinking? I do not care how talented he is,
he will likely not go anywhere in MotoGP starting out
on the Suzuki. The only people that make it seem
to be riders that start out on pretty good bikes, especialy
if you are not Italian or Spanish.

 

It could have been worse, he might have moved to MotoGp and ended up on
an Aprilia, 2nd hand Ducati on Dunlops or the Proton.

 

Yeah that's what I was wondering, but I guess you take your
opportunities when they come and he must consider it at least a foot in
the door to MGP hopefully leading to bigger things.

It will be interesting seeing Casey Stoner's progress in MGP assuming he
gets a ride next year, he is very talented and I really think he could
become a MGP champion as long as he gets the opportunities on
competitive bikes, he young and has a long career ahead of him, plenty
of time to learn the ropes before he's too old.

is a future champion and it would be cool to see him work with jeremy
