a fantastic performance by john, but i would still like to see him retire . pushing that pace is no easy task as he gets older , i would love to see him go out on a high and it doesnt get any higher than a senior win. i sincerely hope no one at honda did have words to the effect his job was on the line, he owes them absolutely nothing and the isle of man is not the place to be adding any more pressure to riders that have more on their plate than any other two wheeled race on the planet.
