Can Ruben Xaus do an "Edwards" and take the WSB title down to the wire this year?
I hope so. I don't want a "Schumacher & Barrichello" show in World Superbikes.

He'll win a hand full of races but Neil is too concistant and is more focused. Valencia was not a favorite track of Neil and he was totally dominant.
The seasons not going to repeat F1 (urgh) last year as HM plant Ducati, Corona Susuki and King Carl's boys will be on the podium within 4 rounds. Championship Outcome 1st Hodgeson 2nd Walker 3rd Xuas 4th Toseland 5th Lavier 6th Corser lets have some classic battles like in BSB between NH and CW (I am dreaming alittle) |

Hodgson will be unlucky to be beaten at all the way he rode in Valencia, considering he hated the track.
But, as Highland said, hopefully some other bikes come good during the season and we have some other riders at least on the podium |

And hopefully the FP1 will be spitting flames again....
I wonder if the road bike will do the same. A guy that went on track days with about 5 years ago had a firebreathing rc45. very impresive. |

Fire breathing is all very good but not healthy. Rumours are that they do it coz the engine runs real hot and running too rich cools it down a little. Is a bad sign really. You don't see many other bikes doing it
As for Xaus. The bloke was acked at the end of last year so if he wins it I shall be amazed |
