Are Brits negative?
What a champ Englands James Toseland is!
JT won the Superbike World Championship in 2004 as a 24 year old. The competition at this time was not as strong as it has been but no one wins a world campionship on luck alone.
JT curently leads the 2007 championship on his Ten Kate Honda.
Now the British press are taking a swipe at the depth of the talent at home because there is no one on the world scene to take over from JT.

Anyone here been watching the British Superbike Championship? Camier, Rea, Sykes, Hill, Crutchlow! Not one yet in their mid 20's. I think the Brits have a huge future.
Here in OZ we support our up and coming (the underdog) where as elsewhere this is not always the case.
I know I go to the Aussie rounds and see a bunch that could go to Europe an blow em' away (look at Mark Aitchison).
(Aussie) Josh Brookes is second to none for the future but he will have a hell of a time against the aformentioned Brits when they graduate!

Jon Armstrong is way more likeable IMO. Will probably be in WRC 2027 when the R5s are the top class
