Would be interesting to know who they will keep out of Redding and Gerloff. Although Redding is the better rider, I would imagine that the decision will not be based on skills/performance, but rather salary.
 
If that is the case, it confuses me a bit. I was wondering this weekend if the reason they kept MVDM and not Redding was that they didn't want to pay 2 "tier 1" salaries. However, if he is contracted to BMW that would not have made a difference. So why did they move him to Benovo then 🧐

It’s unclear if Gerloff will hang around, either. He hasn’t been getting results, and if they need an American rider for the series, Cam Beaubier is probably the better option. He rides a BMW in MotoAmerica, and he is well clear of the MA field when he’s healthy. People like Bautista, Biaggi, and Checa have shown that winning races and titles is possible into your late 30’s. Cam still has some time on his side.

Bautistia, smiling in an interview, after Most, saying he wants to continue on the Ducati, since he cannot leave WSBK with a year such as this

Not sure what he is expecting. This is a fairer representation of what the last two years should have been like if he wasn't the size of a 12 year old.
 
I think I look good in red.
Surely there's something in these contracts that lets our friend exit. These teams bend more rules than the catholic church anyway. Yamaha are pragmatists....and greedy ......
Theres a will, and there is a way.
We need to get Gigi onboard, it will be beautiful. The most successful rider on the most successful bike.

Thanks for the effort petrux, but we need something a little sterner than a light tap into T1

Are you talking about MotoGP or WSBK?
