Who do you rate? Checa or OJ?

Who is the better rider out of these two?
I say Checa.
I think OJ is overrated myself

OJ is Olivier Jacque I presume?

I think they are as good as each other. Jacque since he came up from 250s has either been suffering/recovering from injuries, and last year he was stuck on the 500 until late in the season, and didn't have much test time on the MotoGP machine before he debuted it.

I think we saw Jacque's talent clearly in 250s.

OJ is better long-term than Checa. Just when u think Carlos has got it all together he chucks it off the black stuff...

OJ is definitely better- Checa has, quite frankly, been a disappointment. Yamaha lost the wrong guy- they should have dumped Checa and retained Biaggi, or dump Checa for Abe.

Olivier Jacque is just this basketcase, with injury after injury. He did this in 250s too
Even now he has an injury

We already know of your intense dislike for Barros Mr. Moffat!

given they both rode the best races of their lives at the same time, checa would come out on top. Ive always thought checa is a little underated for some reason, he showed a little spark at times last year, lets hope to see triple the amount of spark this year

If I had my own team, I'd take OJ every time.

On a Superbike then yes. I'm sure Bayliss will be fine on a MotoGP machine, but I'll still wait until racing conditions.

I'd trade them both for Mighty Mick, but that wasn't the question.
