I can't remember if ML said it in his last Silly Season video, or if I read it on Racer X, but I seem to remember something about one of his Euro contracts not ending until mid-November or something like that.

He’s in Cali. I’m sure he’s riding at the private tracks in the hills. He can’t afford to miss valuable time switching to a new brand and still learning Sx.

How to you know this though? Just curious, becuase me and other fans have heard nothing.

It's his RedBull personal deal that is holding up the oficial announcement, MXGP contracts are over by now (See Jonnas on the Kawasaki already). He's in the California riding in a private track to avoid any photos that could infringe his deal with RedBull, even Gypsy in his last Podcast said that he was with him yesterday...

Gypsy reposted parts of a previous podcast done when Jorge rode in the US before the MXGP season, if im not mistaken.

So, if its his red bull deal holding him up, does that debunk the rumor of monster energy leaving Kawasaki?

Yep I think you're pretty much right.

That was 2 weeks ago at least.

First leaked photos will probably be of him on a Jet Ski.

I’m going to start throwing things if they announce this with nothing but a photo of Prado up against a white wall 🤬

Kawi needs to do something more special than that or even Jorge taking a video of himself announcing the ride. If they don't, I don't think people will be happy.

I don’t think most fans truly care about the announcement. We all know it’s happening. We’ll get excited when he’s at A1. As far as the announcement itself yawn.

I believe 450 class champs from FIM are allowed 2 digit number when they come to US.

That wouldn't make any sense.  So they'd just get to bump some guy who earned a National Number?

I thoughts that's why numbers 100-110 were reserved of something?

He earned national number 70 per Racer X (I’m sure there’s a Vital article for it but that was the first one to show up on Google). Logic would say that’s what he would run…

I hope he runs 111 in his first year a.k.a the number reserved for the world champion

I know 10-99 are earned numbers. And he earned 70 which is of course a legendary # in American motocross because of RC. So he might run 70. But I could definitely see him or Kawi talking to the AMA and Cole Thompson to swap so Prado gets his career number right off the bat.
