There's also the backlash to his fans, not him. Over the years some of the Yellow Horde has been obnoxious (especially toward Stoner), and now there's some small entertainment to be had making fun of...

Maybe so.
Le Mans aside, it looks like Pedrosa and Marquez are working harder than Lorenzo, Rossi and Crutchlow. To take advantage of the seamless gearbox, Pedrosa has to constantly slide the bike...

OK, 2nd in his rookie year, with or without crashes, is very special (though Biaggi managed it without any race crashes). I've seen a few comments, though, that seem to poo-poo the idea that MM will...

On the one hand, the 4-strokes seem to have a shallower learning curve; on the other, the competition seems stiffer nowadays.
If MM can get to second or even win the WC without race crashes, I'll...

That's rather lawyerly language -- Pedrosa set the fastest lap of the race, then Crutchlow, then Marquez. And as I mentioned, Pedrosa also got a podium in his first wet MotoGP race.
I know you...
