So they pulled the plug on the entire operation? I would've expected at least the European rounds. 

Didn't they also have a second rider in EMX? 

De Baets team will still exist in 2024. European championship and WMX.

The french rider is actually without a ride for the 2024 season.

Lotte van Drunen will race for that team. Bradley Mesters for EMX250 left the Baets and joined Kosak (big talent and only 16 years old) I believe they will field another two EMX 125 riders.

SHOULD CIRCUIT LOMMEL CLOSE ITS DOORS FROM JANUARY 1? “THIS IS A HUGE BLOW FOR THE SPORT” The survival of the cross circuit in Lommel - this year good for 5 competitions and around 4,500 training sessions - is in danger. “If the permit is not temporarily relaxed, our course will close from January 1,” says Jaak Vanvelthoven, chairman of the non-profit organization.

This would be a disaster for European motocross. Almost all the top teams are based near this circuit.

What was reason they tighten rules at first place? Noise of bikes or just green people complaining? Used to go there every spring trip because it was always open.

They have Van Drunen with Yamaha & Monster support in WMX.  

It does surprise me a bit that you see these types of teams pop up, go big in MXGP/MX2 and then 1 or 2 years later they can't pay for it.

Maybe they can pick up Petrov for a partial campaign, who is on a Yamaha as a privateer.

The main reason of the problems with the circuits in Belgium is they have fooling around for years  with tolerance instead of arranging the permits properly.

Now every green fool gets the right from the judge and the circuits have to be closed.

Done deal between Prugnieres and F&H team for 2024.

Bikes wont be Kawasakis. Official release in January.

Gatedrop just posted that they will be with Kawa with Duncan as well. So it will be interesting to see what happens.

 

Also if F&H wouldnt be with Honda where will Honda end up in MX2? More support & riders at Martens? Have Martens announced riders?

MotoVerte recently made an interview with Prugnieres. They wrote in their article that 2024 F&H bikes wont be Kawis.

So, where is the truth?

No Revo GasGas & Bogers in MXGP

Reason is that a major sponsor of Revo did not come through.

All according to motocrossplanet.nl

I feel bad for Brian, from winning a GP and mulriple podiums IN 22 to no seat in 2024. He deserves to be in MXGP.

Ok, but the reactions of the others were regarding De Baets, so i don't really understand which team you are reffering to :-)

So, I guess you were talking about 2024 Petrov's KTM team...

Anyone know what Bobby Bruce plans are. Sure I saw a pic of him on a Kawasaki in Spain. What team could that be?

Brian did already have a stint on the Honda and that wasn’t the bike for him and that didn’t change last season. He kept it professional but for sure he didn’t like the Honda.
