Only 1 rider for the season. Mike Webb said on pit pass radio that Suzuki told him last week. Looks like they got caught with their pants down. I think this will be Metty's best chance this year. A whole factory effort focused on him. He said next year they go back to 2 guys. Wonder who they will get.

He will still be king of the "B Group" running from 6th to 8th place. Maybe he will pull a podium in a mudder or something.
Sucks for Suzuki, and I really wonder how much bike sales has played a factor in this thing. I find it odd for them to have arguably the best bike for the last few years and not put a championship caliber rider on it (factory or satelitte team).
This year they just got caught with their pants down. With them actively pursuing Stewie and JGR, they put Reedy on the back burner and now they have 1 guy. Metty deserves the attention he will get this year. I think it will be a make or break year for Metty. If he is going to break this group of 5 riders this will be the year. I really hope the best for him. He also stated that Yosh/Suzuki team is doing fine. Next year they will have a 2nd rider, a contender is what they want.
wont Trey and Dean be free men next year?
