As a Spies fan, I was set to be disappointed with a Championship 2nd,
but satisfied with a very, very solid first season after this
weekend. However, seeing Spies on pole and Haga in 10th has rekindled
my hope. It appears Ben's brought the illusive "it" that he had with
him when he beat Mladin for the AMA championship at Laguna in '07(?),
while Haga and his crew chief seem to be looking for "it" frantically
throughout the paddock.
