I've been riding all of my life and since I lack the critical gene for suucessful MotoGP racing (or any racing outside of enduro)I can say that it takes more than just being on a bike a lot of years. The 200mph GP bike is a beast and requires very different skills than a similar 4 wheeled beast. I don't say that F1 is NOT a man eater but going to two wheels is very different. In fact I'd be willing to bet that in F1 thedriver is less than half the equation for success while in MotoGP the rider is 90% of the equation.
