Very interesting quote. I wonder if he's referring to the Konica-Team Scott merger. Perhaps Nakano and Dovi will be team mates? Or maybe this confirms that Tech-3 will be running Michelins? I love the intrigue.

Michelin's director of motorcycle racing Jean-Philippe Weber confirmed his company's will to stay on next year.

"For us too, contracts get signed later on in the season, but we are convinced to keep the current teams. Maybe we'll have a few more riders, however," Weber was quoted as saying by Gazzetta dello Sport.
 
no one will want to sign with them at this point, racing moves so quickly and people are not loyal.
