a couple of things you said there: one was that you had the talent, but also beating your teammate. When the Lucky Strike team and Kenny Roberts pulled you and (Australian) Kevin Magee in, if anything Kevin was probably seen as potentially a better rider. What were the differences you observed between the two of you and in a friendly way, in just an analytical way for learning - what were the differences between the two of you and what brought you through? Kevin was quick, we know, and could ride the things, but he only won one Grand Prix. A: It's funny, I was thinking about that a little bit today. I think there was a few races that Kevin fell off where he hurt himself, and I didn't get hurt in my first and Kevin hurt himself. When you hurt yourself a few times you lose confidence and then the team, pretty much towards the end of the year, they focus on the guy that they think can get the best result. Kevin won Jarama (in Spain) early on that year and I didn't win until later in the year at Donington, but by that point Kevin's confidence had gone down and mine was going up - and that might have been the difference then. He did win Jarama, didn't he, Kevin? I remember that one. A great race. Q: Just to go back to 1993. You, by rights, would have won the world title again that year,
