Yes, but I mean factory or factory supported teams
Nestaan will run the factory husqvarna team. Didn’t see the press release?
Nestaan is the factory Husqvarna team and has been for a while. They're the team that runs Lucas Coenen and Kay de Wolf...
Bonacorsi is actually talking with Ducati and SR Honda for 2025.
Forato could stay with Standing Construct Honda.
Riley Kawasaki riders for next year could be Karssmakers and Guyon (MX2).
I thought Guyon was already a done deal.
SR Honda. Where would that leave Guillod?
Good question about Guillod....
Where does that leave Guagdagnini if Bonacorsi will move into Ducati? I see a strong change of the 101 there, as he was already with the maddi squad earlier in his career.
Guillod to wz ktm from what I heard. Not sure if its true btw
I am surprised Kawasaki supports Riley. They left in the middle of the season previous time.
How much support is their support anyways?
Really eager to learn what F&H will do next year. They had a hard year this year, with only Prugnieres in MX2, he showed some great speed in Turkey and at some other occassions. I see that De Reuver is working a lot with Bonacorsi as well, maybe he can make the move to the team and they will make the step to the MXGP class? Just speculating here.
Have to say, Bonacorsi is not talked about enough here. It is his first full season as a GP pro. Last year he was the EMX250 champ and he had to make the step to the MXGP class after only a few MX2 races. Really impressive
They were partnered with Yamaha back then.
Bona is doing really well this season, he did Yamaha a big favor with helping them to get a rider in the MXGP field but looks like there won’t be something blue for him…
Don’t know how valid those rumors are but also heard F&H might not continue.
Never got official support, the team was buying Yamaha’s left and right but never had official Yamaha support in any way, shape or form.
Thats right, yes!
Pit Row
Bonacorsi has been really impressive. EMX to MXGP is a huge leap, and he has been solid on the 450.
If he doesnt get picked up, i will be amazed, i even think that he might be a good fit at Kawasaki , seeing as nobody else wants to go there.
Second spot at KRT isn't free anymore. Jonass will ride for them next year.
So there are only a few free spots left.
Ducati - 1
Standing construct - 2
SR Honda - 1 (Horgmo is signed)
Maybe I'm forgetting a few spots here
Is Jonass not going to the USA?
When was Pauls coming to the USA?
What about Beta ?
I'm also very curious to know what F&H will do. Maybe they should talk to TM, they showed some interest in motocross again with backing TM Moto Steels DR Jack (Yago Martinez) and with the whole 85 - 125 construction with DVS junior racing. At this point it looks like the team will have to pay for bikes, so maybe they could make an agreement with TM Racing that benefits them all. The stock bike is a great base to start with, better than the RMZ250 if that is really something they consider.
EDIT: It could also be that they in the running to become the official BETA team, it would be a big surprise for me but who knows. I know that at the start of this season there where rumors that BETA wasn't happy with how the ship was run. But BETA hasn't a 250 bike for Courtney Duncan and their French rider isn't ready for MXGP. So dunno, it looks impossible.
I don't think getting free bikes is enough to cover the extra costs to get a TM engine at the level needed, especially compared to allready having in house knowledge how to get the kawas up and running (and probably having a bunch of spare parts). There is a reason we don't see any privateer teams with TMs (or Hondas or Yamahas or Kawas) in MX2 and EMX.
TM would be quite a stretch imo. Would be cool to see, don't get me wrong. But when was the last time we had a TM team with serious budget like F&H does?
Interesting interview with Standing Construct team owner, Tim Mathys. I always love his interviews
