Now the intention might to nurture Flint into choosing the Aces as his top flight side but it still puzzles me why that's at the expense of alienating Smith.

Synonymous or not, Smith is not likely to be good enough to be an Ace in the future, Flint is. It's there to produce future Aces. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not advocating Smith's potential over Flint's or vice versa, they both have a decent chance of becoming top flight riders.

Completely disagree and i will tell you this one has a stinking the worlds against me attitude and one has the attitude to make him a world champion i cant even believe its a question smith or flint there is only 1 winner there. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
