“They don’t care. It’s just another pay cheque to them. This is how they repaid us for all of our hard work.

“I just had to have the last laugh. I bet both of them are kicking themselves now. We’re going to World Superbikes and they’re not.”

Which pretty much says it all. It'll be fantastic to have them in WSBK, they did really well in BSB. Stalker won't be with them, he's riding a Kwaka in WSS, but there are a lot of rumours about Lavilla signing for them.

That was my point but the mod saw it differently and would I argue with the mod!
