After three rounds and six races we have now had eight riders who have taken some form of top three finish or other.
The latest one to join the podium elite was James Toseland, swelling the ranks of previous top three men Leon Haslam, Max Biaggi, Carlos Checa, Noriyuki Haga, Jonathan Rea, Michel Fabrizio and Cal Crutchlow.
There have been four race winners in 2010, first Haslam, then Checa, then a double for Biaggi, and most recently a win came along for Noriyuki Haga at Valencia. Biaggi and Haslam have two race wins each in 2010.
Riders of Suzuki, Aprilia, Ducati, Honda and Yamaha machines have already put in podium performances; five of the seven competing manufacturers this year. With ten rounds and 20 races still to go, there are many opportunities left for all the riders and manufacturers with podium ambitions.
