I think he means the entire Factory blue bike effort.

But those were two separate teams. Star had nothing to do with the Factory Yamaha 450 team as far as I know.

Would’ve chose Ty over Craig all day long, at least for outdoors. They’ll be lucky if Craig makes 3 or 4 races.

But it appears they are taking over the Factory 450 effort, not joining 450s in addition to it, so the number of Yamaha rides will be the same number.

So who’s paying the Star 450 guys?

It’s like saying if they also absorbed the ClubMX or Rock River riders and contracts that the team is the same as it’s always been. I’m talking about Monster Energy Star Racing Yamaha. Not the number of Yamaha bikes on the track.

Or like how HRC Honda can’t just absorb the Geico Honda team and host them all under one tent. They are two different teams with two separate budgets.

Agree. But I think the post was more in response to "business must be booming" inference.

They wanted an immediate title contender. They have 4 riders that can win races and perhaps a title. Craig also had the ability to jump up to the 450 if Plessinger or Ferrandis get injured and provide good results. Smart move

Wasn’t there some talk of money/owner moving from the FC Honda team over to the Star team? No not Geico.

No.
Pretty sure Yamaha pays for 450 riders.

Ha! That's a great point. Joe Blow at the practice track is like Masterpool is on a Husky. Too funny

Ferrandis was the hottest free agent property and knew where to go in order to be the #1 guy on a 450 team. Easy decision. His negotiations with the other 5 likely went something like this:

Pit Row
