There's a good article on MotoGP and Nicky Hayden in the New York Times http://www.nytimes.com/2007/08/19/sports/playmagazine/0819play-hayden.html

It's good to see an in-depth "mass media" article about MotoGP.  Well-researched and accurate (AFAIK) too!!


PS-  This arguably belongs in Pit Row.  I think the article has enough general appeal to belong here.

Thats a good article.  I think the MTV show may increase the amount of careless kids getting motorcycles though.  Thats life.

Good article. I don't think we'll have to worry about the Kentuckey Kid being a bad influence for fans or getting caught up in dog fighting charges.

Wow...seven pages on MotoGP and the Kentucky Kid. Awesome. Can this have some relationship to the fact that next year we will have TWO MotoGP races in the states???

Yah, that's a good article.  Hopefully it'll drum up a wee bit more support for GP.  Go fast Kentucky Kid!
