Yes, Bradley has really been coming along and is a serious talent for the future I reckon. Unless (and I apologise in advance to the hardcore Honda afficionado's here) Honda have their way and get rid of the 2 stroke classes entirely in the near future (and it looks like they are pushing to do this well before the agreed re-appraisal date of 2011) and replace them with a proddy based 600 fourplodder support class .
As we've seen before, when it comes to MotoGP Honda tend to get what they want, so we may end up seeing the final death of the strokers well before most of us were imagining we might have to say our goodbyes. It would be a very, very sad day if simple commercial pressures were to destroy the best race classes in the world. To their immense credit Aprilia and KTM are fighting Honda over this of course, but will they be able to wrestle with the might of Honda? I really hope so...
