Few little things ive heard:-

Elias to join D'Antin alongside Guintoli.

and

Nakano in negotiations with Gresini, could lineup alongside DeAngelis.
 
Yes I heard that as well.

Barros has still a contract for 2008 but he is said to be retiring from MotoGP. He may still land the Ten Kate ride in SBK. Bu I think he'll retire completely.
 
Barros has an option for a years extension, but both parties still have to agree on that.. Pramac D'Antin expected regular top 5, even podium position finishes (not just one off's) from Alex, that hasnt happened, I think he'll go..
 
... And just why is it that we would get rid of Tony Elias in the Gresini team? You always need a mad Spaniard around in the mix. He most certainly brought a lot of spice to the grid. I am wondering if he is choosing to go to the Satellite Ducati.

It seems to me that the Gresini team was very good run team. Although they weren't a factory ride it was pretty darn close and very good quality team. I am not so sure about the D'Antin Team.

What happened to a return of Sito Pons to Motogp? That was also really good satellite team. hmmm. anyone know?
 
Elias on a ducati sounds interesting
So Nakano gets to stay with Honda and be back on Bridgestone'

Sito Pons runs a car in the Renault World Series ( an open wheel series ) so he's hardly likely to return to Moto GP http://www.worldseriesbyrenault.com/
 
it's a Shame Sito Pons won't return...
I don't like the shrinking grid - Shrinking paddock. At this rate the Team KR will be out on their tail before the end of the season.
...
 
Nakano on a Gresini would be sweet!!

If they have the Honda fixed by next season, look out!
<


The only thing that bothers me is, why would they put Dovi on the Konica/Minolta and Nakano on the Gresini? Wouldn't they be doing the reverse?
 
Because Scot and Montiron have teamed up, that's why Dovizioso is taking Nakano's seat
<


It is also said that Konica may sponsor Gresini if they sign Nakano.

Last rumours say D'Antin will definitely have Elias and Guintoli.
 
Hmm...intriguing.

Where are you guys hearing this stuff? I haven't seen the Nakano-Gresini thing anywhere yet.

Guintoli seems pretty confident he's got a ride for next year in his interview from portugal...
