I don't know what leads you to believe Lorenzo is better heads up, but I think the crashing factor alone throws that theory out the window.

Lorenzo's first wreck wasn't in Practice wasn't it? a huge high side that knocked him loopy and i think fucked up his ankles (the ankles may have come from another wreck)

but either way... just an opinion... I don't claim to be a pro at pick'n riders... shit I said last year Hopper would get on the podium at least once.
