Hawkins is not doing a factory ride no justice. Surely they are looking for something more.

I agree, but they just need someone to keep the seat warm until Cochran moves up.

I believe Hawkins came up a year early to fill in for some injured Riders maybe not a good choice.

It's hard to say he came up a year early when he's 2 days older than Jett Lawrence. I understand Jett is generational but it's still hard to believe someone is brought up too early at that age.

It’s less about age and more about experience. And Jett’s a poor comparison. He did not have an average American born racers path to pros.

What about Deegan, Hymas, Ryder D, are they a good comparison? All are 2-3 years younger and significantly out performing. I'm just saying it's crazy that his ride would be secure for next year and Ryder D is apparently looking for a ride.

No, Vohland will be with Star next year. Kitchen will be at PC and Simoda is going to Honda.

Ferrandis will be looking for a ride as Webb takes his place and we will see Tomac again. He has unfinished business.

They are not booting Ferrandis out. He is bitterly unhappy....Star can't keep him happy. The decision to part ways when the time comes will be mutual.

He doenst seems to like new -23 Yamaha at all. Im sure he thinks with Honda he could get another title. Too bad if he ends up KTM platform where his SX results wont improve and outdoors AMA spec is nothing near to MXGP bikes or Kawasaki where his setup options are limited. There wont be room at HRC for him anyway next year. 

Would be awesome to see him testing his winning -21 bike and new -23 at same track.

Team is likely Swoll, Mosiman, and Ferry. No confirmations but that seems to be the strongly suggested team.
