Ben Spies Says He Needs a "Miracle" to Grab a Podium in 2010 MotoGP Season

Spies has really taken the time to learn about his competition in the 2010 MotoGP paddock, and he knows it is going to be a tough road in his freshman year. After all, he will have to come up against many racers who have been doing this for a long time - and many of them are used to the style of riding you need to have in that series; it is rather different from a superbike. But, we also know that he won the World Superbike Championship in his rookie year there. I guess he is trying to tame any expectations that fans may have since most people do not know how different the prototype bikes in MotoGP actually are from his YZF-R1.
