Hmmm..... A bit like ending prohibition and finding only Mcewans is for sale.
Circuit is good but nobody in the series will trouble world level riders.

I'd forgotten how much I liked that circuit.

Just watching the Pittsburgh round... It's a physical, rollercoaster of a track in the same vein as Portimao.
There is a huge disparity between the first half dozen and the rest of the field in MotoAmerica; I don't know if it's down to budget, technical rules, series exposure or talent.

Been watching some highlights on YouTube, pretty boring stuff. Needs better riders rather than better tracks.

To be fair, MotoAmerica is improving all the time and they are trying to bring talent through. After the way the Daytona group fucked the series, it will take a bit if time.

Pittsburg is a wonderful track. My new fave.

Washington, good but probably better before the chicane at turn 1.

So....anyone seen any talent that could rise to WSB never mind Motogp? I'm not sure I've even seen a BSB winner.

Apart from the top 3 or 4 riders, who all appear to have a a go in WSB or MotoGP at some point already, no-one really jumps out at me. After those riders, the talent kind of drops off somewhat. It would be interesting to see a proper "Trans-Atlantic" style series,with 4 rounds in the UK and 4 rounds in the US; the circuits do appear to have similar characteristics.

Missed this one. Baz to Motoamerica on a Ducati. Bet he pisses it.

Depends on the bike and team. Like BSB, there are some quirky tracks to learn. If he wins a race or two over the first three rounds, I think he will take the title. Good life over there so might not see him back for a while.
