Tony Elias-Moto GP 2008
Tony Elias is without a doubt my favorite rider in Moto GP. I always believed he could have a very promising career on the mecca of motorcycling but he never had the right support in the teams he is been involved with.
The catalan lad just signed up to ride for Ducati in 2008 and despite its not an official team/bike [again] I really hope it gives him a better chance to display his top class and fearless driving style.
Elias reminds me a lot the good ol' Kevin Schwantz with those powerful two stroker 500 cc on the 80s and mid 90s, nothing to do with this days boring 800 cc 4 stroke ones, with the controversial traction control device and other sort of advancements in electronics. Yawn! But like I said Elias would have had lots of fun back then.
