Apparently there's an announcement coming Sunday i think ?

I'm going to MV Agusta 1000. Mostly because it's more shit than the BMW he was going to turn into a world beater :D

It didn't last time. Apparently they were ignoring the fatties and developing the bike for the skinny streak of piss. That didn't end well, did it? :hmmm: :D

Whilst i can see Weeksys "point" ;) Redding is another brit that Papa Van Der Straten really liked (as he does Lowes) when he was riding for him.

It would make sense for him to be their other rider alongside Lowes as he has some knowledge of the V4 Ducati although a couple of years out of date now.

Anyone will go better on a Ducati,the BMW is a career ender as it sits. Redding and Lowes have the potential to be a strong team.

Yes.

Yes.

Scotty did OK at Donny and is going OK in practice at first visit.
Let's see. Toprak must have a good reason for going.

The only news I saw was Loris Baz saying his future depends if Redding takes an offer of the second Bonovo seat as Gerloff is on a 2 year deal so Baz would get the flick

Yeah, just saw that myself. Can't see Redding wanting a satellite ride on a similar bike?
