Cal Crutchlow

Following on from his win in the Czech Republic, the first time in 35 years, he gained a second place ( 3.48 seconds ) behind first time winner, Maverick Vinales. at todays British Moto GP.
That means that he, after lots of problems in the start of the season, moves up to 8th in the world championship.
Good luck to Carl for the rest of the season.

Re: Cal Crutchlow

He's a great Superbike rider but, I'm not sure he has the GP skills needed.

Maybe so, but he has proved a point. He left Ducati to join Honda and has had a few good results. He can produce the results on a decent bike. Credit where credit is due.
Let's get behind another British winner.

Re: Cal Crutchlow

I'm a big fan of his......I just question his ability to be champion.
Just because he's British I ain't gonna blow smoke up his ass.
