Its a translate from Google so some stuff does not come through.

A Yammy 1-2. I wish I had money on that.

James can kiss his butt goodbye to a Motogp ride next year. While he is at it, Jonny Rea can do the same.

J.T only hope for a "real" ride next year is to win the dead WSB championship. Even that might not be enough, as Honda dont have a factory effort in this year. The Ten Kate squad is only a "works" team, not a "factory" team.

Answer 1

Must have gone out in full steam too soon. That's the only reason I can see someone binning it on the first lap out of the pits. Good to see something other than a Honda win at Suzuka after such a  long time.

Answer 2

Hey Wiggy,

That nice fella Hirotaki Uchida has already linked up the results here:

If you have a click about his site you will see that Toseland crashed coming out in the second hour - and it looks like the Gixxer led pretty much all the way.

(while you're at it - have a look at the webmasters page! OUCH ! )

Looking at the papers/web pages last week it seemed there was a long cue forming to kiss the ring of J.T. - lets hope that continues! He surely deserves to pick up a decent ride, somewhere he can be competative.

Brands next week!!! Bound to be plenty (rumours) news!

Answer 3

Gixxers Rule!
