Better than you think
Laconi had only ridden on two or three tracks on the WSB Calendar, and he did well on them, and would have won the last two races had Troy Bayliss not Highsided and taken him out the first race. He was so happy he was doing well and he ran over to Troy to make sure he was ok and hugged him. Sounds like a great guy to me. He won the next race right after that. That's a great feat considering the competition, and it was his first visit there on a superbike. When he was on dunlops in Gps, he was one of the fastest Yamaha guys, and the switch to Michelin slowed him down. Give him a chance.
