I know Corser is a former World Champ, but that doesn't necessarily make someone a good development rider. I'd use Stoner as an example... he's one of the few riders that could handle the Ducati, but he couldn't give Ducati engineers the precision feedback they needed on the front end/handling to make it better. So you end up with silly mods like wings on the front fender.
I wasn't aware Corser was a key component in the RSV development.

Couldn't agree more. I had high hopes for Haslam this year, he was fun to watch last season.
