All,

WoW what a year for the Irishman. Congrats on not only winning his 3rd straight WSBK title, he was also awarded an MBE last week.

Its great to see our sport/passion recognised that these men/women are amazing ambassadors and deserve recognition for their achievements.

Very happy for him. Great guy that deserves all the hard earned success and accolades.

Interestingly he was also quickest at the Herez test last Friday, beat all the moto gp boys, I know there are differences in their tyres etc to explain that but he is certainly a talent.

He got first runner up in the voting. A big surprise considering how relatively lacking in popularity motorcycle racing is compared to the other sports. Well done, Jonny.
