Maybe it's small things amusing small minds, but I found this t-shirt funny.
This is now official.Darryn Binder to Gresini
This was a beyond obvious move particularly if they want to keep Acosta. Did Ajo not want to leave his teams in the junio classes previously ?. He can’t have been impressed by all the talent he developed on his excellently run teams being squandered by the not so excellent KTM management in the premier class.
I agree, which is why I said KTM management in the premier class. I doubt the likes of Herve Poncharal have much say at all.I think Pit Beirer gets away without shouldering blame for which he should be shouldering entirely for the horrid management of KTM rider talent. Easy to blame the team principals since they wind up being the face of the team publicly anyhow. Who has the final say at the end of the day, Guidiotti or Beirer?

Depends partly on how much Red Bull are paying I would guess. Maybe they are unimpressed with the premier class results given they are involved at least as far back as the Ted Bull rookies thing.What effect will these losses have on KTMs MotoGP team?

Oh . . . I though maybe the energy drink people had teamed up with Ted Talks.Red Bull Rookies
Wow. Didn’t see that coming.
Signs that Honda is finally starting to get serious.
Sterlacchini might be a worthy replacement though.
Sales of large sports bikes is in decline and the end of ICE powered motorcycles is approaching so while your prediction may happen they may be considering these factorsGiven that Yamaha has stopped making the R1 for the street, I wonder if the V4 project is designed to have a road going variant as well. Whilst not everything is fully transferable from prototype to street bikes of course, the ethos can be carried over. The engine in the Panigale V4 is called the Desmocedici Stradale for instance; and as per Ducati, is heavily influenced by the MotoGP engine.
I would not be so quick to predict the end of ICE powered motorcycles, in fact I think fossil fuels are gonna power our world for decades to come.Sales of large sports bikes is in decline and the end of ICE powered motorcycles is approaching so while your prediction may happen they may be considering these factors
