I must admit... I'm little excited over getting to see Christophe Pourcel back on a 250f.
I'm not such a big fan over his personality but his ridingstyle is really something special. Effortless and smart lines...like Bayle, Everts and Windham.
Really hope that he rides thru all the outdoors and makes his career turn over to something great. I'm not sure how his back problems are these days but I guess he learnt to deal with it.
Even if he only gets top 5 at best, still great to see him out there again !
And if the rumours are right, the old factory Yamaha team has really stepped up for Pourcel's US comeback so would also be cool to see the blue crew get back to the old days as a winning team.
The rumours are that Pourcel is riding really good at the moment. But wane see it before I believe it !
Amazed that we haven't seen more vids or at least pics of him riding yet ?! Only seen one video so far.
Anyone got some more on who the new team manager is for Valli Yamaha ?
My prediction is that Pourcel will turn some heads this summer... He is on a great bike with strong team around him. He has a lot of experience, and should be able to use that to his advantage racing with the kids.
The only thing that can really go wrong is his mindset. If he only can stay positive and don't expect to much to early, if think this can be a good summer for the Pourcel crew !
Any news on what mxgear Pourcel will use this summer ? I guess he won't be in UFO gear when the gate drops at Glen Helen !

definitely not a PC Kawa 250.
Your post seems very sarcastic, but it's hard to really know on this site if someones joking or being serious. It's been a while since Pourcel has raced in America. Last time he did, it wasn't half as glorious as the picture you just painted of him. I hope he does well too, but damn, I'll be you $$$ he isn't going to win the championship.
But he should have matured by now.
How old is he... 26-27 ?
Especially chasing Deano, Bagget, and the rest of the very very hungry lites class.
Hope things work out for him this summer....as I'd like to see him stick around for a while.
