It'll be a while before we see him as a frontrunner. The sooner the better, but it'll be a while. He's the first American champ since I've been watching GP.

yeah it was an embarrasment for yamaha and michelin. If you have a talent like rossi, its usually the bike or tires fault.
Hayden had a laguna and assen win. Still he did what he had to do to be that close to win it. Im sure there were 1000 other riders who would've loved to have been in nickys position.
