I'm aware of the BS stereotype. That doesn't make it any less BS. Hayden has been employed at the peak of his profession for seven years and he's a World Champion. Have you ever heard Kenny Roberts speak? Do you call him a hick as well?
My honest opinion is that Nicky would have achieved even more in his career if he was able to race prior to this current age of traction control. He honed his skills sliding around a dirt track. Traction Control voids those skills. That being said, he's still doing pretty damn well and I would love to see him finish in front of Rossi a few times this year. It's not likely because, well, it's Rossi.
