		Max Biaggi is the outstanding Italian talent of the '90s.
		It was Noale who freed Max, and the Roman took revenge in his own way: he went back to Kanemoto and handed the '97 title to Honda, crowning the four happiest years of his career as a phenomenon.
		Biaggi had to content himself with 3 poles and 2 fastest laps, well below his standard, but he bulled his way to 5 wins, and they were all he needed.

		Max Biaggi, the four-time 250 GP champion, and multi-race winner in his first year on a 500 GP bike (even winning straight-up against Mick Doohan) has struggled all year in the 500 class.
		Biaggi dominated that race like no other 500 rider has dominated a race this year, and his wheelie and stoppie exhibition on the last lap was incredible.
		Biaggi and the bike were one -- he was truly in the "zone".

		Reports today quote Giampiero Sacchi as suggesting that with the right finance in place, and with the acceptance of Biaggi to the project, that the Aprilia factory are confident of an inclusion on the grid for the 2006 MotoGP campaign.
		It seems to be a quagmire of rumor and conjecture at present with regard to Biaggi since his fall from grace as a factory Honda rider.
		Biaggi seemed (and it still may be the case) to be without a premier class ride for 2006 following his split with HRC and after becoming somewhat of an outcast as far as the politicians are concerned.

	Soup :: Max Biaggi Feature
		If Max feels that those around him on his own team, or competitors, or even the press, feel he can't accomplish something, then it must be proven to them that he can.
		Loris and Max were fundamentally different, right down to their creed: Max is a well known believer in superstition.
		Max will tell you that there are people out there, even at the Aprilia factory, who believe that the only reason Max had any success at all is because he rode Aprilias.

	Hopper Racing Forum - Bridgestone says no to Biaggi/Kawasaki deal (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		Max Biaggi's chances of a 2006 Kawasaki MotoGP ride are reported to have ended after the team's tyre supplier, Bridgestone, refused to support any additional riders.
		Biaggi was hoping to announce his new ride at the Bologna Motor Show later this week, but Britain's Motor Cycle News states that - while Kawasaki, Camel and Biaggi had all but agreed a deal - Bridgestone has now sunk the third ZX-RR project after refusing to supply the extra tyres needed.
		Should Biaggi indeed be forced to retire from grand prix racing, Camel is expected to return to the Honda Pons team as title sponsor for its new rider line-up of Casey Stoner and Carlos Checa.

	rpm.espn.com: Rossi making it look easy
		It happened to Biaggi in the British Grand Prix on Sunday and it was a hard defeat to stomach for a man whose relationship with Rossi this season has been highlighted primarily by scuffles and mutual dislike.
		Biaggi, who beat Rossi into second place in the previous race in the Netherlands, was runner-up.
		The 22-year-old Rossi is now 26 points clear of Yamaha's Biaggi at the halfway stage to the season, not a huge margin in a sport that awards 25 points for a win, but a comfortable one nonetheless for the Honda rider.

		Biaggi and Rossi have had two clashes already this season, most recently in Barcelona when they were involved in a post-race scuffle.
		Biaggi, arguably the smoothest rider in the sport, comes into the race in excellent form having performed brilliantly last time out by winning in Assen.

	Biaggi makes a race of the title - Motorsport - www.smh.com.au
		Italian Max Biaggi clawed himself to within one point of reigning world champion Valentino Rossi in the championship race with a gritty win in the German Grand Prix at the tight Sachsenring circuit on Sunday.
		It was Biaggi's first victory of the season and he displaces fellow Honda rider Sete Gibernau, who went into the race sharing the points lead with Rossi, but who fell for the second time in as many races.
		Biaggi is the only rider of the major contenders to have scored points in every race this season, and it is this consistency - plus the occasional victory - which makes him a serious contender for the title.

		Who instead pushes in order to make that Biaggi remains in saddleback to a Honda is the Camel that beyond to being sponsor of the Pons Team is also personal sponsor of Max Biaggi.
		Sure it is that for Biaggi the only solution is that one to remain in saddleback to the Honda why is Suzuki, Kawasaki and Ducati has already their pilots for 2006.
		Max has a great relationship with Sito Pons and Camel, (much better than he ever did with HRC, and it's pretty well known that Pons has always wanted Max back on the team and the door has always been open) so it will be interesting how this all unfolds.

	Max Biaggi in the Shadow of Rival Valentino Rossi
		After Biaggi took his Erv Kanemoto—tuned Honda NSR500 to the pole, fastest lap and victory in Suzuka, Japan, at the start of the 1998 season (his rookie year)—beating then four-time 500cc world champion Mick Doohan—the Italian’s elevation to hero status was assured.
		Biaggi has often been maligned for a riding style that supposedly relies on high corner speed ingrained from his many years racing (and winning) on 250s.
		Biaggi’s win at the German GP was his first in ’04, and it quickly propelled him into the thick of the championship chase.

		Biaggi now has a solid offer on the table from Francis Batta, owner of the Alstare Suzuki team, but, contrary to reports in the Italian media, the deal has NOT been signed, and, although generous by World Superbike standards, it is for far less that Max earned with Honda in 2005.
		Biaggi, if he is quick and wants to make the move, could be a candidate for the slot that the Portuguese driver Monteiro seeks.
