  5. Stop knocking the guy, he's given a lot of time to making motorcycling great - he's still the ONLY one to get anything out of the Ducati. A comeback is still a possibility and even now, long overdue...........

  7. I have no idea what that honour is but I'm sure he'll treasure it more than all of his Moto GP successes, trophies, wife, child........
