Personally I felt it was a massive shame when Buster Chapmans son dropped out of the sport. Not everyone’s cup of tea but he had some great ideas when he was involved, it’s a shame some of the ‘experienced’ promotors never let him see them through.
Simota was IMO going to be a class act, however that accident and more importantly the crash in the play off final in 2006 changed that. Still should be a top rider in the PL this season.
