uh, no. that would mean...uh, no, not going to happen. especially, considering the way it ended the first time. if motoconcepts does happen for pourcel, then I would be shocked. I could imagine just about ANY team but motoconcepts. But if it is happening, then more power to all parties involved. talk about a silly season so far....

If he is going to come back, he better do it quickly, otherwise he will struggle mightily to get back up to speed. Please don't anyone tell me about how fast he was 3 years ago. That ain't today. And today is faster than 3 years ago. And fitter. And deeper.

"Word on the street". That's pretty solid... NOT! Back then, he had a chance, still plenty fast but totally failed. Now when his stock look Leman Brothers-ish, what are the odds?

He raced the GPs last season,

He went:
2-2 in Sweden
1-2 in Bulgaria
1-2 in Italy
1-4 in Brazil
2-3 in France
2-4 in Portugal
2-5 in Belgium
4-4 in Russia
2-3 in Czech
2-2 in Faenza

And a couple of 8-14 finishes and a really bad race at Valkenswaard at the opener. It does'nt seem to far off for just being a year ago. He ran close battles with Canard in the Lites class and Canard where off the bike for a longer time then Pourcell was/is.

And now he's back living in Florida, just won a local sprint Enduro.
