Nice to see Kagayama's return to form and I think he'll give some of the top guys the hurry-up at some of the upcoming rounds. Also, Roby Rolfo has been quietly improving as the year progresses and starting to justify his place. He'll get a few podiums by the end I reckon.
The series is heating up nicely.

I'm *thinking* Bayliss for the title, but I'm *hoping* it will be Toseland. If only because I think he got rogered by Ducati after he took the 2004 title and sometimes Ducati needs a poke in the eye (like Bayliss did when he took the last MotoGP race out last year).Phantom... Bike Who Parks

I reckon if Bayliss beats Toseland for the title it will be difficult for Toseland to make a comfortable move to MotoGP - after all, if a MotoGP cast-off beats you for the title, how are you going to go against the guys that repeatedly beat him???
But then again, if he was to stay in WSB following a defeat to Bayliss, he'd then be up against a 1098 with a Bayliss in the seat. Would be a morale sapping experience either way...Phantom... Bike Who Parks

All 3 manufacturers are pushing for things to remain until the end of the 26. Not even the goons running the WRC will be stupid enough to push them out by forcing new regs for 25
