Of course. Jeremy and I have many ideas and business plans that need to be executed, haha.
Good rider and a good agent
I think they all struggled with the Yam outdoors. Not sure if they have focused the design of the bike so much on supercross that it’s taken away it’s feel outdoor. Look at the ama as well, Ferrandis really struggled with bike setup also.
Geerts and Renaux did it really well on a 450 at the MXON, so I don't think there's a bike problem.

Gotta love how loosely defined "Agent" is in MX haha
Congrats to jeremy and well deserved. Sounds like he's going to make some good money.
Did he want to change teams or did Yamaha want to let him go? Or did Kawi simply offer a better deal?
Seems stupid for Yamaha to let him go. He's maybe not a title threat but someone to count on to get a good amount of podiums and the occasional wins.
Kawasaki showed a lot more faith and excitement about having him on their team. Yamaha mismanaged the situation.
Wow that's crazy. I feel like in the last years Yamaha has made some pretty good choices. Not this one
Hope it works out for Seewer
Seewer is a great racer I hope he gets a title on the green bike.
With him gone Kemea Yamaha isn’t exactly hurting for talent- Geerts Renaux maybe coldenhoff if he stays…
Please forgive my ignorance to the situation - but at the face of it - would you feel confident in saying the seemingly more stable management / sporting structure (such as IceOne has had in-place) versus the Wilvo v. Rinaldi / YE Divorce added to allure of the switch? *in addition to* the freedom to managing all sponsors, head-toe?
That being said, I have always loved his Goggle / Goggle Strap move. It's so simple & does add value - to the point that I'm a little surprised that more individuals / teams haven't done / been allowed to do it?
Coldenhoff will be on Wilvo, not Yamaha Factory MXGP.
Kawasaki was a better offer in every way. The attraction of a fresh start too – Yamaha's management has been chaotic...
I'll be unpacking this with Seewer in an interview down the line (December) but it was a no brainer to leave Yamaha IMO.
...so Vosters is going racing in 2024?
I keep hearing that team may take a year off of MXGP. Will they still be on Yamaha, and if so will they be factory bikes or production?
I thought Hoff was going to retire, good that he will stay racing.
Shit changes every day with Yamaha...
Vosters is 100% going racing. Manufacturer is TBC but Yamaha is one of two options – it won't be factory though.
I believe Coldenhoff has signed for 2024 and 2025; he will be around for a while yet. Yes, Yamaha is a real mess.
And to think people were getting antsy about Gajser contract not being done as early as they expected last year
Wouldn't Vosters be the perfect team for Triumph?
Lewis, any rumours on Horgmo, Vd Moosdijk and Forato? Heard some things but seems like they all found a spot for next year. Forato not on factory KTM though

December Lewis?
Your interviews with Seewer are bloody brilliant - how come so long before you do it?
Perhaps you can tide us over with an interview with Ben Watson during the wait. Well, a few other Rider interviews as well - not being a suck up, but you do some great reportage and interviews, despite you being a Pommie B**tard (had to throw in an insult, it's law for an Antipodean when conversing with a Brit) .
Can you reveal which teams wanted Seewer?
MX ESCA will do a great job there... Vosters would be amazing for Ducati, I think, but that seems like a long shot now.
No Horgmo rumors; he had nothing the last time that I spoke to him. Moosdijk is just as quiet.
Beta need a second rider, so it makes sense for one of them to go there. It's moving fast now.
Forato has a deal and won't be on an Austrian bike. Clue: He'll sit next to a former world champion!
Seewer's Yamaha contract will expire in December, hence that wait.
Thank you! I need to do more – my life/stress was sorted this week, I'll be able to publish more and improve! Thanks again.
That's a good question... Can I? GASGAS was one of the first teams to show interest.
I heard they all found a home
So Lupino out at Beta, Watson had a two year deal.
Very good for Forato! Hope him and Jonass will get along well
Horgmo most likely with SR Honda Motoblouz Ship-to-Cycle.
That would make me happy! I feel like that's the best situation that Horgmo can hope for.
Any updates on Evans? Keep hearing he'll stay in MXGP, any idea where he will find a home?
I would bet that he'll be on a German KTM team doing the ADAC and some/all GPs.
