I think that Hayden's talent has been ignored by Honda, like so many
other great riders before him. Honda just seems to keep building
motogp bikes that are not optimized for their #1 rider. I think that
if Hayden leaves at the end of the season and goes somewhere else,
then I think that you will see that his talent needes to dovetail
with the bike that he is on.
I mean it would be like asking me to show all my riding skills on the
tail of the dragon on a Harley. I would probably crash since that is
not a bike that I can ride.
