I too have not seen King getting stick. He seems to have settled into the role he's expected to fulfil - as part of the engine room supporting Sayfutdinov and Doyle.
Racing against KL, King, Brennan, and Ellis are pretty much matched directly with the likes of Klindt, Iversen, Harris, or Lawson - so they are all capable of beating each other (depending on lots of variables).
As I always say - race the same match with the same riders another night, and you'll get a different result.
if Iversen had been on form, KL might have got the BP! If Ellis had been a few points better, it would have been closer.
