Phoenix or Firepower? I think Firepower is rumored to be in talks to handle Ducati’s racing effort when they come to the US. Would be interesting if they signed him AND they made the switch to Ducati.
Ducati won’t be in the US for at least 2 more years. No one is waiting that long.
Kevin Sherman to HEP?

Gibson and Pepperd(spelling?) are both on 250s.
I just heard Mosiman to BarX ?
From Matthes:
"Still some stuff getting firmed up out there for 2024 SX/MX, it looks like Shane McElrath is going back to the HEP Suzuki team. He was there for SX as a fill-in and I guess it worked out as he's back and going to join Ken Roczen and maybe one more guy in the RM Army. Dylan Ferrandis is still out there looking for a ride and I know HEP and Dylan have talked, he rode the bike and liked it so I figured that it was a natural home for him. After all, it was the only "factory" team out there for the #14 and seemed like it would be a good match. But then... nothing happened. I think there was a push for Ziggy at Factory Connection to do something on a Honda with Dylan but in my mind that was always going to be tough financially for FC to come up with the money to put Dylan on the road like they did in the early days for Mike LaRocco.
So what I think is going to happen is Dylan will head over to the Phoenix Honda team and they'll step up their program to field a full-time 450 guy. Dylan will get to ride a Honda and rebuild his value, there will be some spots open in 2025 and he can get himself back on a factory team. Although 450SX success has eluded him, he's won everything else out there. So this should be interesting to watch, the ever-outspoken-about-his-bike Dylan Ferrandis on a privateer team but hey, desperate times call for desperate measures and he won't be the first rider forced off of the factory gravy train and then try to get himself back in. It worked for Tim Ferry and Larry Ward!"
From DC concerning Ducati:
"Of course there's already a buzz as to when the brand may begin racing on the AMA circuit, and we've already heard whispers that they have their eye on Roczen, who just signed a one-year extension with HEP Suzuki. Just thinking out loud here, but given his age as well as his clout, one could imagine seeing Kenny and family spending the summer of '25 back in Europe on the MXGP trail shaking down the Ducati, and then maybe back here in '26? What a cool story that would be!"
Any word on Dylan Walsh? I see he is back training in the States with Dean Wilson
What about Cole Davies? Seen him with Bogle riding.
between them + the ever-growing Indy field of Kiwis, Velco Glove sales will never be higher!
I'm just kidding - I love Aotearoa haha
You’d have to be a miserable individual to downvote that video.
Just woke up to see Hunter Lawrence stepping up to 450 and Aaron Tanti confirming for PRMX 450 good time to be an Australian fan, Let’s go boys!
Like Matthes or hate Matthes...that's at least more than anybody here has been able to spit out about Ferrandis' future in several months!
Dylan wants to ride a Honda. The FC Honda team is/was going to be difficult to put together this late into the year, so going to Phoenix Honda with backing from Factory Connection is a great alternative.
Looking forward to see what he can do on the red bike.
If You Haven't seen Already Mark Fineis confirmed to Clubmx
Is this confirmed?
Pit Row
Seemed like it was according to Pulp on Monday.
Nice, thanks.
It was interesting to hear Lars say that DF has been on their radar a few times for a potential ride.
Cool! I'm a fan of the kid.
Watching his interviews late last summer, I'm sure he's going to kill it
A factory team considering a 250/450 champion who won while riding for another factory team is surprising? It’s not like we have a Sean Hamblin situation on our hands here.
Josiah Natzke off Partzilla
If they were thinking about DF for the 2024 season, it would be surprising to me. They knew they would have both Lawrences on 450s in 2024, so adding a 3rd potential "A" rider would not be cheap.
It was before he re-signed with Star on his last contract not for 2024
That's a shame, I wonder what happened there? He got a lot of race wins while he was with them.
I heard they found a clause in his contract and he's going to ride for Star racings new Canada team. Buyout option of 50 packages of Canadian bacon and a pallet of Labatts.
He's done with Supercross, which was one of his goals. Now he's free to pursue other options and concentrate on MX.
I wouldn't worry about it.
Smokes and pepperoni I heard, but close enough 😂
