I thought i'd start this thread for WSB rumours and facts about whos leaving WSB for 06 and whos coming to WSB for 06.

Is corser set to stay at Corona? title or no title?

Is Haga staying put?

Whats happening to Toseland and Laconi?

Whos coming to WSB next year? Kiyonari? ex GP guys? Bayliss?

Is Bostrom guna be a front runner for 06? lets hope so.

Forgot to mention if JT goes to join Corser,then Kagayama is poised to come back to BSB to help /ride Rizla Suzuki,they are almost 6 months behind with development.

Vermeulen will stay with Ten Kate.
Bayliss is rumored to come back to a Ducati, I do not know if factory or not.
Corser will stay with Suzuki.
Haga will stay with the Yamaha.
Rumors say Bostrom runs a Yamaha as well.

These are all my predictions so do not quote me on those.

1st ive heard of this one. very doubtful.
 
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Marbles @ Sep 14 2005, 12:31 PM)<div class='quotemain'>I reckon Lanzi my get a works Duc next year, he was pretty impressive on Sunday
<div align="right<{POST_SNAPBACK}>
yes! very impressive. bayliss & lanzi perhaps?
 
I don't see any reason for Corser leaving, same being said for Haga.

There are still rumors running about that Suzuki MotoGP want Toseland after all, perhaps that rumor is being confused with a ride for Alstare Suzuki. If that's so I see Kagayama back in BSB for 2006.

It looks very likely that Bayliss will fill Toseland's role aboard the factory Ducati and I would assume Lanzi will receive factory backing aboard his NCR team, similar to Ben Bostrom's situation in 2000 and extending into his L&M team in 2001 and 2002.

I don't see any changes in Ten Kate until 2007 when Vermeulen will depart for MotoGP.

I haven't heard anything regarding the MV WSB team, I hadn't even heard that they had entered, good stuff.

And Ben Bostrom will ride for Renegade Honda in 2006 again as he signed a two year contract so he will be riding with them for at least one more season. Xb, perhaps you are confusing the rumor that Eric Bostrom will be racing in the AMA Superbike series aboard factory or factory supported Yamahas under Red Bull sponsorship.

now this is interesting!
 
You are right Ooost. I confused it with Eric Bostrom running a Yamaha here in the States in the AMA. Rumors say he will move to a Yamaha with Red Bull sponsorship if he does not sign with Ducati soon.

Roger Lee Hayden is rumored to be riding a Superbike in the AMA for Kawasaki. I would like to see that. The more competition the better. All 4 factories duking it out!!
 
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (46marijke69 @ Sep 14 2005, 09:06 PM)<div class='quotemain'>steve martin has confirmed that he stays with Foggy PETRONAS Racing team in 2006.
<div align="right<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Poor old Foggy. I remember when that project took off. It was anticipated very much and everybody inc Foggy said that they would be winning races in their 2nd year.... nevermind.

Even tho its one of the nicest lookin bikes out there, its never going to be 'winning races' competitive is it? Shame.
 
Laconi? wheres ol' Regis going next year?

Didnt he test a Desmo? ive got a feeling he could do quite well on one. just a feeling as he is a fast and brave rider.
 
I think Ducati will keep Regis in WSB, if he can't win the title there or at least be a consistant challenger than why should they think he could be a competitive rider in MotoGP? I think he'll have his ride for '06 alongside Bayliss and if he isn't consistantly up front his seat will go to Lanzi for 2007.

Xb, I don't think EBoz will re-sign with Ducati. If he was going to be their rider next season he would be testing alongside Hodgson in Mugello right now. I believe Ruben Xaus will be the other Ducati Austin rider for 2006 but can't take part in testing with Neil due to contractual obligations to Herve Poncheral, Altadis and Yamaha.
 
eboz is definately not re-uping with ducati. he apparently can't come to grips with the 999 consistantly & he can't figure out why. i think he'll be better off on the yammi!
 
It was just announced that Kawasaki will return to AMA Superbike racing for 2006 fielding Roger and Tommy Hayden on the all new ZX-10R to challenge Mladin, Spies, Bostrom, Hodgson and Duhamel. Yamaha are set to announce their 2006 plans "soon".

Does anybody know if Hodgsons contract is up at the end of next year?

His reason for going to AMA was to win the title, i cant follow AMA, can he do it next year?
