If Hayden was on a Honda, he still wouldn't be in Group 1; he would be a stronger contender for 5th (or 4th for as long as Pedrosa is out), with an occasional podium, especially in the wet. Hayden's experience on the Duc is serving him pretty well now, in that Rossi is still working to get the hang of that bike, and for now Hayden's times are competitive with Rossi, putting him in good contention for 3rds.

I don't really see him as a top contender in group 2. More mid group 2. But the second paragraph is pretty much what I was getting at.

I had Lorenzo just to go against the Stoner train mainly because he did so well there last year. Just pushing it a bit to hard in the rain will get you everytime lol.

That was a pretty good race. Moto2 was even better.

Cheers to Stoner!

Agreed, Awesome race for Edwards. I bet he could still clean up in WSB or AMA.
