May not make me very popular around here, but something happened to Ben back in his last year (and I'm not talking about his Sepang crash & injury) with Yamaha and he's never been the same since. Seemed to lose that fierce determination he had in his Superbike days. Still, hate to see one less American in MotoGP.
