A unique personality?

On Men and Munters at the moment they are running a trailer for a new series about Fogies Petronas superbike team - and they describe him as "a unique personality".. what exactly do they mean do you think?

Doohan, Rossi and Bayliss all seem to be decent blokes.

Bayliss is a typical Aussie - laid back, approachable and just a top bloke.

I think that just about sums Bayliss up "a top bloke" What three words would you use to sum up Foggy??

I trust that all the people who are slagging Foggy off have actually met Foggy & not his public persona?

Unique Personality?

Dave, I met Foggy when he landed at my feet a few years ago.........I now wish I'd kicked gravel at him and walked away, instead I went to help him!!

No, I have never met Fogarty in person. He may be a nice guy (most people are) but he does come across as an arrogant plick!

He's just your average bloke if it wasn't for the bike racing he'd be working for his dad's haulage firm.

moto 1, I think that's the difference between bike and car racers. If they didn't have a true tallent for racing a bike they wouldn't be where they are but with cars as long as mommy and daddy have money U can drive in the top of your sport!!!

Ouuu,I bet that opens a can of worms!!!!

Oh yeah he obviously had the talent, and when he stopped crashing he was well up there! But would he have done it if his dad wasn't an ex-racer or well off??
