With both Matt Mladin and Ben Spies off the grid for 2010 who will become the new champion? Will it be the new Suzuki rider Jake Zemke? Josh Hayes on the Graves Yamaha R1? A lot has changed in the AMA as well this season. The new bike in the field the BMW S1000RR posted 11th on Sunday at Fontana showing well for such a new combination. While it is a long way to a championship race bred machine I would be surprised if it did not see a podium or top 5 this year at some point. John Hopkins is back stateside having made the switch from Bridgestone shod Moto GP bikes back to his GSXR and is adjusting well to the horsepower changes. Hopkins place 5th with the M4 Monster Energy Suzuki. There is also the Hayden name with Tommy winning the race on a Rockstart Makita GSXR. Tom has been racing in the AMA with Kawasaki and its good to see him running at the front.
