Well done to Spies but Mladin deserved it.
Also, Kawasaki took 1-2 in the supersport with Roger-Lee taking it over teammate Jamie Hacking. Just goes to show their bikes can be good in a decent team.

Anyone know if spies got any plans to move on from ama now we has won the title two years in a row or is going to hang around as long as mladin?

I think he has a contract with Yoshimura for 2008 but he did say MotoGP for 2009
