Tribute to Mat Mladin
 
I understand people may not like him for whatever reason but he's a favorite of mine and I have to respect his accomplishments. These series of interviews really help give insight to things us fans don't see behind the scenes. Hope you like them please watch them all if you have some time! Thank you OnTheThrottleTV

I believe the correct term is "bromance" :ride:

There's no doubt he's very talented, however he's always been an overqualifed rider placing seconds ahead of everyone else, bored out of his lid, that never had the stones to step out of his comfort zone and apply those skills to MotoGP, it's very easy remaining a big fish in a small pond.

He could still ride the wheels off the bike. There was no one better at playing head games with riders then him. He had the field beat before they arrived at the track, which is really hard to do. Rossi does the same thing, just with a smile. Mat rarely smiled.

Same reason why Duhamel will always be more popular.

I felt bad for the guy, over the years racing as injured as he was, hobbling to the bike with a cane was never quite his strong suit.
