So, Rea has signed a "Marquez" style, multi-year deal with Team Green, A. Lowes will partner him again in 2021 and van der Mark is leaving Pata Yamaha; can you see MvdM heading to MotoGP or will he stay in WSB? If the latter, I can see him heading to Ducati.

Vdm is NOT gp quality. Well other than the Baz sort of kick around midfield on your best day way.
I read Camier's shoulder if still a problem. Maybe it's time for him to depart, he's been lucky getting so many rides imo. He lost his momentum long ago.
Rea is boring, he should have tried his hand elsewhere but I guess maybe he likes the Kwak and it's been easy money for a good few years.

I was shocked when I saw how long Camier has been racing. Retirement must be on radar for him.

Talks of Toprak graduating to GPs seem to have tailed off too. Did he sign for 21 as well or was it a one year deal?

Options and opportunities are running out for ELav! BSB or MotoAmerica for 2021?

He'll look back on the tache and think was it a mistake, did it put sponsors off?

Rumours of Rinaldi/ Redding combo for next year with Chaz out. Can't say i'm surprised, he's not really 'on it' most weekends with the V4.

Ever since Eugene came back from MotoGP it just hasn't worked out for him in WSB. Not sure why? Chaz will probably click with the V4 for the rest of the year and get replaced regardless. He could probably do with a move just to freshen things up.

Given that the Honda had virtually knack-all development done on it for this season, I reckon it will shape up to be a decent ride (eventually) and really stand a chance, in the right hands, of winning the title. That could see a really big name replacing Leon. This is all purely supposition on my behalf, of course.

No I reckon the Honda will eventually be the bike to be on. Maybe someone will get kicked off the motogp merry-go-round and give the bike a go (Crutchlow?)

Bautista has impressed me with his progression on the Honda. Clearly HRC are chucking the kitchen sink at this new Fireblade but Alvera has been on V4s for years and has already put the thing on the podium. I reckon he'll take a win before the season end.

That's exactly what/who I was hinting at Meeks. I think Dovi would be a step too far to suggest, both financially and also it being too much of a downward step in his eyes. But also like Pantah said, Alvaro is starting to look good on it. He just needs to keep it rubber side up. I haven't seen any articles about how much HRC are throwing at the project both money and resource wise but I have to say it's the first Honda since the SP2 that I have really lusted after (shame that I wouldn't really fit on it). |
