Chad Reed To Exit Moto X In 2011

MOTOCROSS superstar Chad Reed, one of Australia's greatest sporting exports, is poised to turn his back on an annual $8 million income racing motorbikes in the US to become a V8 Supercars driver.

Fox Racing's Reed said yesterday he would return to Australia when his two-year deal with Kawasaki ends in 2011 to join his good mate Jamie Whincup in the V8 Supercars series.

Ranked No. 3 on the list of highest-earning Australian sportsman behind Greg Norman and Harry Kewell, Reed will end his reign as the world's best motocross rider in what will be a major coup for the V8s.

"I have tested with Team Vodafone and it is certainly an ambition of mine to drive again," said Reed, who lives in California.

"I have given a lot of thought to coming back and it could be something I do in the next couple of years. I would have to do it properly though, which would mean coming through the development series."

Only 27, Reed could become one of the top drivers, according to Ford back-to-back champion in waiting Whincup.

"He has spoken a lot about coming back and driving," Whincup said. "And I think he has the talent to do it.

"Chad is a racer. Give him enough time in any vehicle and he will be a success. At the end of the day you learn how to control the throttle, the break and learn about grip and rubber.

"It is the same for a bike or a car and once you have that skill, then all you need is time. The best will still be the best."

Reed has been considering the switch since he test drove the Team Vodafone Falcon in 2007. He was on the verge of quitting last year before signing a new two-year deal with dirt bike giant Kawasaki.

Reed, who is worth an estimated $25 million, said he would have no trouble turning his back on another rich US motocross deal.

"I have made my money," he said. "It is not what motivates me. The challenge of doing something new is more important.

"I have done a lot in this sport and by then I might be looking at a new challenge."

Whincup said Reed would be able to help market V8 Supercars in the US, with the sport recently signing a deal with Fox to broadcast all the championship rounds in America.

"He is a superstar over there," Whincup said.

"Chad was pretty impressive when he tested with us. He didn't set lap records but he did a bloody good job."

Petr Pilat's foam pit succumbs to Chuck Carothers and his Harley Davidson !

On Thursday, the city of Prague was engulfed by smoke, burning to the ground just a mere two days before the tenth annual Gladiator Games was set to take place. Actually, the city's just fine and un-charred, but young FMX ripper Petr Pilat's foam pit is no longer with us. During Chuck Carothers' last day of perfecting his Harley Davidson flip into Pilat's foam pit, the Fire God decided to pay a visit, turning a simple spark between the bike and the foam into a full-blown raging fire.

I was set to post photos of the fire the same day, but as I was posting it a representative from Harley Davidson sat down next to me in the hotel lobby and asked me not to post anything until the jump was over. I don't really understand the reasoning for this, but I honored his request, but now we're cleared. Supposedly the Mayor of Prague, who's a big FMX fan, offered to re-build Pilat's foam pit. Pretty crazy, huh? (Source Espn FMX Ryan Leyba)

JENSON BUTTON

Sure half the world is aware, but if not, JB is off to Mclaren- good move, or bad? Personally, I don’t think it’s the best move he could’ve made, but hey ho, we shall wait and see what the new season brings. It is certainly going to be an exciting season with new teams and new rules. And even more interesting is the fact that BRAWN GP are no longer- they have been bought out by Mercedes….. I am waiting in anticipation for the summer and the new season!

FORCE INDIA F1 TEAM

With their Mercedes-Benz-powered VJM0s, the Silverstone-based Force India team truly came on form in the 2009 Formula 1 World Championship, placing ninth in the Constructor Standings and picking up a pole position and second place finish along the way. For 2010, the team recently announced that it will enter F1 fray with drivers Adrian Sutil and Tonio Liuzzi. For Liuzzi – who placed 17th in the Driver Standings in 2009 – it will be his fourth straight year in representing the team while Luizi will be a full-time driver for the first time since 2007. "We are very pleased to retain the services of both Adrian and Tonio for another season," said Force India team principal Vijay Mallya. "We have always maintained that consistency is key at this stage in the team's development and for the first time in many years we will have the continuity of not only the same drivers, but also the same engine and senior management.

MICHAEL SCHUMACHER

Healed Scuderia Ferrari Felipe Massa raced to massively celebrated victory in the second leg of his own charity karting on Sunday - the International Challenge of Go-Kart Champions at Florianopolis in Brazil. The 2008 Formula 1 vice champion narrowly defeated his former Ferrari teammate, seven-time F1 World Champion Michael Schumacher by an eye blink of a margin of 0.087 seconds. The dynamic duo battled fiercely through the pack as their third and first places in Saturday’s first heat had left them starting down the order on the reversed grid. Schumacher's combined two day total of a win and a second place made him the outright champion of the annual event. Massa, who was having his first competitive race since his Hungaroring accident in July, placed second. 2009 F1 runner-up Rubens Barrichello had led the early laps of Sunday’s race but eventually finished fourth behind IndyCar driver Vitor Meira.

WORLDS FIRST EVER TANDEM BACKFLIP TO DIRT!

Yet another ground breaking trick tonight from the Gladiator Games this time with Petr Pilat as the pilot and the Mayor of Prague as the passenger a world first tandem backflip to dirt….I wonder if Boris Johnson the Mayor of London would have the balls to attempt something like this – I very much doubt it!

Elbry Sandland Update

I took part in my first dh race in about 11 years last weekend down in torbay, with no idea of the track we turned up on slicks to find a super wet track, with only one run down before my race run we had little time to pick lines, with all the locals riding the track twice a week and every weekend it was clear the few not so locals that had an invite were going to find it hard, First run and i think the nerves kicked in, a off line moment and i had to get off the bike and push to get going, After that it was on and we charged down and took the 6th fastest time!next up was a fresh new trail, Again no time to practice other than one roll down..

We got an ok run and came in 7th, No sooner as i got to the bottom we were told we would have another run on this track so we hit it up as one of the last riders the track was cut up and i was one of the only rider to go quicker on my second run, even with a crash!, taking another 6th, 7/6/6 giving me 7th overall. looking forward to some training this winter and more DH racing early next year to go along with the freeride and other events and jams we will be hitting up.

Ox Crashes

On November 14th, 2009 the newest member of the AFMXA, Jeff “OX” Kargola was in a serious accident while pre-running for the Baja 1000 in San Felipe, Mexico. Ox crashed, smashed his belly (probably with the bars digging in) and drove his head into the ground. He says he “saw a bush shadow that may have been hiding a rock”. His front tire missed it, but his back tire hit it sending him into his crash at probably 50mph. He isn’t too sure, but he knows he was riding down the highway after the crash through military check points without stopping. OX saved himself. Riding alone, he got up and rode to the highway and towards San Felipe, a 45 mile ride. Eventually he got dizzy and was going to crash on the pavement and stopped in the middle of the highway. Some locals stopped and put him in their car and one of them rode his bike to SF.

At 11:22am the AFMXA received word that Jeff was in a clinic with a laundry list of injuries and we went to work! Medjet assist was called immediately as Dr. Gus Gialamas stayed in constant contact with the Doctors at the clinic in Mexico. By 2:45pm Medjet was in the air and Jeff was on his way home to be admitted to Scripps Mercy in San Diego for proper treatment. He landed in San Diego at 5:03pm and was in surgery by 7:53pm to stop internal bleeding.

Because OX is a member of the AFMXA he knew he could contact us and we were able to assist him in a life-threatening situation. The AFMXA will continue to support him and look forward to his full recovery!

Although his medjet flight was covered by his membership (had he not had it this would have cost him between $40-60k) his hospital stay and surgeries are not. We are currently taking any donations on AFMXA.org to help support our friend and team member.

Lastest News From Astars !

And so it is- the last race of the F1 calendar, has come, and gone. We come to the last moto gp race of the season, and I am hoping for a Casey Stoner win. It has been a tremendous season for Alpinestars and we now have a F1 world championship to add to the trophy cupboard. Who knows what could’ve happened if Casey Stoner hadn’t sat out those 3 races, but hey ho, this is the gruelling world of sports and at the end of the day, these guys are human, just like you and I. Going back to success, it has been great to see the Astars logo all over the tabloids and spread across our tv screens, throughout the year. It is this exposure that makes the brand grow and grow, and allows us to be able to branch out and create great lines, taking the brand out there to the people who love what we do. So, as per usual, here are some pics and notes from around the world.

F1 ABU DHABI

Red Bull Racings Sebastian Vettel won the inaugural Abu Dhabi Grand Prix Sunday by racing around McLaren’s stealing the lead from Lewis Hamilton who did not finish the race due after suffering brake failure in his MP 4-24. 2008’s World Champion Hamilton ran in the lead from pole with Vettel following his every move. Vettel took the lead when Hamilton came in for his first pit stop on lap 18. Vettel followed shortly after and was able to come out ahead of Hamilton. Soon after though, Hamilton reported a vibration and limped to the paddock on lap 20 suffering the first mechanical failure during a race of his career. At that point, Vettel simply disappeared and was able to lengthen his lead over his Red Bull teammate Mark Webber. Webber had to fend off the spirited advances of new World Champion Jenson Button in the closing laps but was able to hold off the Brawn GP driver. Button was happy despite missing out on second. “It was a bonus to finish on the podium after the year we've had,” said Button, who had not finished on the podium since Monza in September. “I need to thank everyone at Brawn and Mercedes for all their hard work. It would have been easy to switch off after Brazil, but we didn't. We've come away with a podium, which is a nice way to end the year."

NASCAR TALLADEGA- JIMMIE JOHNSON

After a lengthy red flag period causes by Ryan Newman flipping his car in a major crash on lap number 183, once the race went back to green and eight laps later, Jamie McMurray won the Amp Energy 500 on the otherworldly fast and intimidating 2.66-mile tri-oval that is Talladega Superspeedway. By all accounts the race was deemed a “snoozer” as a few hours before it went green. What caused basically 450 miles of mind numbingly boring racing came at the behest of NASCAR president Mike Helton who banned any sort of bump drafting and who demanded to “see daylight” between the cars in the 33-degree banked turns. End result: Amazingly long periods of single-file traffic and no driver willing to defy NASCAR's order not to bump through the corners. Nonetheless, what ultimately happened on the superspeedway was a melee in the last 50 miles, upwards of 35 cars fighting tooth and nail in a frenzied effort to get to the front. Ryan Newman's nasty crash with five laps to go left him upside down in the grass, and NASCAR stopped the cars with a red flag as safety workers required 13 minutes to cut him from the car.

SUPERCROSS- JAMES STEWART

Although resigning AMA Supercross Champion James Stewart crashed twice in the second night of racing at Bercy on Saturday in Paris, France, the American still managed ride away to a somewhat easy overall victory. All things considered, Stewart utilized 3-1-1 finishes to ace the overall on the second of what will be three nights of racing in the French metropolis. Stewart began the night by tipping over in a slow speed corner while on a slow lap, then going on to finish third in the Superpole after nicking the wall in the Bercy tunnel. Undaunted, Stewart kept the Yamaha pinned in going onto to win the America race and the Main event. Stewart won the overall over fellow American Justin Brayton (1-3-2) and Frenchman Marvin Musquin (4-2-4).

TITBITS OF THE WEEK

“Man jumps bike over chopper…..” Travis Pastrana has been at it again. It would be fair to say the American essayist didn't quite have the future exploits of extreme sports star Travis Pastrana in mind when he championed the cause of individualism in the mid-19th century. After all, leaping onto a dirt bike and performing a backflip over a hovering 40-metre helicopter could be pushing the boundaries of sanity to new limits. But that is what 26-year-old Pastrana, who has won 14 X Games medals, did in front the Sydney Harbour Bridge today, to announce the Australian tour of the MTV show Nitro Circus. See clip here:

The Lastest From Astars !

Another insane weekend in the world of the Astar. Rossi wins a 9^th world championship (grrrrrr…). Casey Stoner is my man (have you noticed?) and he won convincingly in Malaysia yesterday, but I cannot say anything other than Valentino Rossi is the master- he is the Roger Federer and Tiger Woods of the bike world, and has created his own empire, and has a huge fan base. We seriously need to get this guy into Alpinestars! Staying in bikes, this time World superbikes, Ben Spies, who does, proudly wear Alpinestars gear, has been crowned world champion

BEN SPIES- WORLD SBK CHAMPION

American rookie rider Ben Spies certainly rose to the occasion on Sunday and delivered Yamaha its premiere World Superbike title at the opulent Portimao Circuit in Portugal, riding the works R1 to a safe and sound fifth in the second of two races to earn the world title in his first year on the globe trotting circuit. Spies' debut season in World Superbike was stunning as he won 14 times in 29 races, earned 11 pole positions and 17 podium finishes. Spies needed only to have finished sixth in the second race to earn the title if his championship rival Noriyuki Haga took the victory and it was obvious that was the Texan's goal from the get-go. Spies started out second behind Brit Shane Byrne, dropped to third, then fourth, before dropping into a comfortable sixth and watching the proceedings from there. He would end up fifth late in the race after passing Aprilia's Max Biaggi, taking the title by six points after coming into Portugal 10 points behind Haga.

CASEY STONER- WINNER, MALAYSIAN MOTO GP

While Valentino Rossi won his seventh MotoGP Championship with a calculated third place finish at the rain-lashed Malaysian Grand Prix, it was Ducati Marlboro's Casey Stoner streaking away to score a convincing victory. And although the Australian made it look easy, the conditions he won in were quite difficult. The Grand Prix was actually scheduled to begin at 3 P.M., 30 minutes before the bikes were set to leave the stating grid in anger, rain came down in buckets and the start time was shoved back to 3:35 P.M. When the race did actually begin, Stoner immediately put the hammer down and clicked off lap times that were upwards of three seconds faster than any other rider. When all was said and done, Stoner sliced through the failing rain to win the GP by a brilliant lead of over 15 seconds. "We couldn't ask for, basically, to come back after this three race-off and we've had a second, two wins, we can't ask for a lot more than that. and a big thanks to everyone who supported and stayed with me and thanks to the doctors and everybody who's helped us out," he said after his second win in a row.

LAVERTY WINS AT HOME FOR VODAFONE PARKALGAR HONDA

VODAFONE PARKALGAR HONDA ace Eugene Laverty utterly decimated the field to take a dominant victory at the 14th and final round of the World Supersport Championship at the team’s home Parkalgar circuit at Portimao in Portugal – securing the manufacturer’s Championship for Honda in the process. After securing the team’s first pole position yesterday, Laverty led from the start to finish and was never under any threat during the 20-lap race. It caps a brilliant season for the Irishman who has taken four wins and five second places to finish second in the World Championship.

Popular Portuguese Vodafone Parkalgar Honda racer Miguel Praia secured his best ever qualification yesterday with seventh and backed it up with a hard-fought 10th place in the race. It further secures an excellent season for the Parkalgar circuit local who is now in place as a top 10 runner in the Championship and finished 15th in the table this year.

Eugene: “This is the race I wanted to win most all year, it is the home circuit of the team and the dream of Paulo Pinheiro and to take victory here in such dominant style is my way of saying a big thank you to the circuit and him for having faith in the team. The Portuguese fans have adopted me this year and I could hear them cheering me from the grandstands – thank you very much, I am proud to be able to win for you all. My Vodafone Parkalgar Honda was great and I want to thank Simon, Brains and all the team for their support; they are a great team and deserve this win. Well done to Cal Crutchlow on winning the Championship, he is a worthy Champion.” Miguel: “It took me so long to overtake Fujiwara that by the time I did there was too much of a gap to the riders in front. My Parkalgar Honda was good but the riders around me were very strong. I was trying my hardest and overtaking where I could but they came back at me. At the start I lost a couple of places so this result is not as I would have expected but it is good for the team. I am delighted for Eugene to win here for Parkalgar and it shows just how strong this team is. Thank you to the crowd who cheered me every lap – I hope you will come back next year when I want to make an even better result. It is great to see a Portuguese team win and fight for the World Championship.” Simon Buckmaster, Vodafone Parkalgar Honda Team Manager: “That was a dominant win by Eugene and I cannot praise every single member of the Vodafone Parkalgar Honda team for the amount of effort they have put in to make this happen. We have taken the Manufacturer’s title for Honda in the process which is excellent and shows exactly what the best Supersport bike is – the CBR600RR. Well done to Miguel for taking another top 10 finish, he is rightly a genuine contender for the top 10 and we will take that and build on it for next season. Well done to all the Parkalgar Honda team, we are a privateer squad and we took the Championship to the last race and did all we could – we will come back stronger next year and the title is our clear aim. Thank you to the Parkalgar circuit and all the fans for their support; it’s been a great year for us all. Congratulations to Cal Crutchlow for taking the World Championship.”

Alpinestars News !

Well, well, well. After 10 years, Button has cracked it. Two weeks before the season started Button did not have a job. Then Ross Brawn came along, and together, they have created history. After starting way down the grid at 14th, Button fought his way through the field, and with some gutsy driving, managed to finish in 5th place- this was enough to earn him the world championship! And ever present, to millions of viewers around the world, was that neat looking Astars logo! We are very proud to have been associated with Brawn GP from the very start. WELL DONE JB!

In other news……. Casey Stoner totally owned the Aussie Moto GP, for his 3rd consecutive year. Please see below for the weekend highlights.

In April Flavio Briatore dismissed Jenson Button as a paracarro - an Italian term for a roadside post usually made of concrete.But in Brazil on Sunday Button answered Briatore and the rest of his critics with a stunning drive to cement his place in history by clinching the world championship in fine style. After dominating the early part of the season with six crushing victories in the first seven races, the second half of the year has been much more difficult for Jenson, and with his title rivals Rubens Barrichello and Sebastian Vettel driving well and picking up wins, Button has faced accusations that he would not be a worthy champion. Any doubts about his worthiness were blown away yesterday in Brazil when he drove a superb race to make up what seemed like an impossible deficit at the start.

After a miserable summer of trying to come to terms with a mysterious and very frustrating illness, it all came right today at the scenic Phillip Island circuit in Australia when Ducati Marlboro's Casey Stoner won his third straight Australian Grand Prix by beating back the spirited advances of Fiat Yamaha's reigning World Champion Valentino Rossi in a 27 lap fight to the finish stripe.

AMA Supercross Champion James Stewart inaugurated the 2010 YZ450F in perfect fashion after sweeping the high-profile US Open Indoor event at the glitzy setting of Las Vegas and walking away with the 100,000 dollar grand prize with victory last weekend. Vegas saw not only the maiden competitive outing for the completely new machine but also the first meeting in several months for the 23 year old (24 in December) who abstained from any motocross activity in the summer (he won every outdoor moto of the 2008 season) to be fully prepared.

Travis Pastrana Nitro Circus 7 "Country Fried" Video Trailer

Travis Pastrana took a few hours out of his marathon mountain bike ride and Rally Car race schedule to finally land his infamous 720 flip trick that went so wrong at X Games in the summer. Travis rode out of the completed trick, but re-named it the TP7 as he still needs 20 degrees of rotation to call it perfect! Chad Reed made a guest appearance as a Nitro Circus Crew member and took part in some explosive Supercross action caught in its full glory on super high speed cameras. The results were incredible! As a final gesture to confirm that Chad has really joined the Circus, he rode over to the scene of Travis' TP7 and proceeded to land his first ever backflip — all on his full factory 450 Suzuki!

EUGENE DOWN BUT NOT OUT

PARKALGAR HONDA’S Eugene Laverty crashed, remounted and bravely finished 13th at today’s 13th round of the World Supersport Championship at Magny Cours in France to keep his title hopes alive - he is 19-points behind Championship leader Cal Crutchlow with only one round remaining and a maximum of 25-points for the win still up for grabs.

Eugene had been challenging eventual winner Juan Lascorz on a Kawasaki for the lead of the race and was in second place at mid-race distance when he crashed.
Miguel Praia finished 12th on his Parkalgar Honda. He will be going for a better result in the final round of the Championship at his and the team’s home state-of-the-art track at Portimao in Portugal on 23rd – 25th October (to book tickets in advance, visit http://www.autodromodoalgarve.com/).

Eugene: “That was not what we wanted from today. I had been cruising behind Cal and when I passed him I was leading the Championship on track. Overnight the team had made changes and improved the bike significantly so we knew we would be in with a chance. I wanted to put Lascorz between us but the fuel load had dropped and it caught me out. Usually I have a few warnings and put more weight on the front but this time I had none and down I went. I got back on but the right lower fairing was dragging through the corners and slowing me down on the straights. I am not hurt but I am disappointed, however, it is not over yet and now we will go to our home track at Portimao and we have got to win either-way - who knows what will happen. We still have a shot at the title and want to win at our home circuit in Portugal.”

Miguel: “My start was not so bad but I was blocked at the last hairpin by another rider out-braking himself and then lost four places on the opening lap. In the beginning I couldn’t do the lap times I expected but after half distance I was comfortable and able to go faster. We are 15th in the Championship now which was our start of season goal which is good. I have higher hopes for the final round at my home track and have a big expectation for that race at Portimao; it is going to be great and I would encourage everyone to book their tickets now.”

Simon Buckmaster, Parkalgar Honda Team Manager: “That was turning into a great race and everyone was pushing hard when Eugene slid off. Last weekend it was Cal, this weekend it was us. It isn’t over yet though and while we are disappointed not to win today we will go to our home track at Portimao with the clear intention of winning the race and seeing what happens – Eugene was down today but he is not out of the running. Miguel didn’t get going quick enough but his lap times at the end were good – 12th is still a strong result for him and solid points. Well done to the whole Parkalgar Honda team, everyone gave their all this weekend and I am proud of them.”

Morgan Carlson Update

Yes another busy summer comes to an end, and I think we made the most out of these months. We been pretty much everywhere this year and these last month we been doing Kazakhstan, Portugal, Georgia, Holland, Belgium, UK and Spain.If we gonna mention some of the coolest ones, then it´s probably Georgia and Portugal. Georgia held their first even FMX event ever, and they did it with style.

Red Bull X-Fighters Exhibition Tour in the middle of Tbilisi, the capital of Georgia, in front of a 80 000 strong crowd Nick Franklin, Morgan Carlson and Stoica did what they do best. The police expected around 15 000 people, and was a bit out numbered when people filled up streets, houses, roofs, cars and traffic signs the get a hint of the guys.

Expect more from these countries, they are so strong right now, motivation, strong consumers and good capital behind.Jimmy, Gilles and Broecky did a show at the start and finish straight just before the start at the GP2 series in Portugal.

As you Europeans might know, the GP2 is the sub division of the F1 and attracts good crowd and great media coverage. Our aim is to entertain the people, make solutions for our promoters and give our team, riders and sponsors media coverage. And this year we definitely stepped it a notch or two.Next up is a couple of Monster Jam shows in Barcelona, Helsinki and Stockholm. And also a long awaited show at Oslo Spectrum in Norway!

See you soon!

EUGENE CLOSES IN ON CHAMPIONSHIP LEAD

PARKALGAR HONDA’S Eugene Laverty is only two points behind the World Supersport Championship lead after finishing a brilliant second in today’s 12th round of the World Championship at Imola in Italy; while Parkalgar Honda racer Miguel Praia finished a career best ninth.

Oil on the track forced a two-part aggregate race and then with just three laps to go Championship leader Cal Crutchlow crashed out of the race, leaving Honda’s Kenan Sofuoglu to win. There are only 50-points and two races left in the Championship, meaning Laverty is assured of second place in the title race or better. The penultimate round of the series is at Magny Cours in France next Sunday, October 4th.

Eugene: “I wasn’t able to show the Parkalgar Honda or my own true potential this weekend because of arm and leg pains that stemmed back to Friday’s delayed timings. I have an old injury in my left arm and a problem with my leg that means I have to stretch a lot on Thursday and Friday but this weekend the sessions on Friday were so interrupted I didn’t get a chance. The result was a lot of pain and this morning I had 10-injections in my arm and leg each – I was worried about even finishing the race so to get second when I could have been much stronger is excellent. I can’t believe I am back in the fight for the title, this is the closest I’ve been all year and I’ll be going to Magny Cours and then Portimao doing my best to win the World Championship at our home track.”

Miguel: “I am happy, ninth is my best ever result and the racing is getting closer to Portimao which is just as we planned. I actually crashed on the oil on the circuit when the first part of the race was red-flagged but got back on and to the garage. The second part of the race was good and my lap times were only a little bit behind the leaders. I was lapping faster than the group in front and if I had made a better start who knows what could have happened. My bike is good and the Parkalgar Honda team has done a great job.”

Simon Buckmaster, Parkalgar Honda Team Manager: “Eugene was so much better in the race than practice and qualifying, his head was in the right place and he got the reward – he cannot be beaten for second in the Championship and has a real chance at winning it. There are only two rounds left with two points in it; that just goes to show the pressure of fighting for a World Championship, today it was Crutchlow that made an unforced error and scored no points. It’s now a two round Championship and the final round is at our circuit in Portugal which gives us a lot of encouragement. It was a good job by Miguel to finish in ninth. Honestly, I have never seen him ride better than he is right now; he’s stepped up a level. Well done to the whole team, it’s been a fantastic effort from absolutely everyone.”
