Hopper to WSB


Hopper has now been officially released from his contract with Kawasaki, which means the roadblock to joining the Stiggy Honda WSB team has been removed (he was talking to them back in December). He's now free to sign on as teammate to Leon Haslam and Roberto Rolfo. There are lots of bike fans bad mouthing Hopkins on various forums, but let's face it, if he joins the WSB pack, it'll only add depth to an already deep field of talent. He'll probably run towards the front of the "peloton" and isn't likely to see a podium all season but there's more to racing than the three guys at the front.
