MXGP silly season here

I'll start...

Acxcording to MXLARGE Ricci Yamaha are being dropped by Yamaha. Maybe the will go out with Ken De Dycker in 2011 on a KTM in MX1.

Jacky Martens continues to work with KTM for two more years. Three riders in MX2 and Roelants is already signed.

Husqvarna will return to the GP's with rider(s) in the MX2-class.

He is borned 1989 so he has two more years in MX2. Maybe he'll end up with Husqvarna, they were looking for a top 10 rider. Another option is of course JM KTM but i havent heard any rumours either.

Musquin leaves to the US of course. Van Horebeek could replace Simpson but Simpson born 1988 still have one year left in MX2 if he wants.

It seems unlikely that Kawasaki could buy out Herlings?? Herlings seems to like learning from Everts and CLS Kawasaki having already signed Anstie and Searle must have used most of their money?

What's the future for Ramon (LS Motors Honda) Rui Goncalves? Seb Pourcel (KTM HDI?)

Gareth Swnaepoel? Will there be a team Aprilia 2011?

Lot's of questions...just as exciting as the racing if you ask me.

If Simpson joins Kawasaki that would be Barragan, Boog, Simpson then i guess? Do they want three riders this year as well? ( they certainly need all riders they can get since 2 out of 3 usually are injured)

I agree Shaun will do good in MX1. He doesn't seem suited to ride on the limit and very agressive,

Will KTM have trhree riders next year as well in MX1? With Cairoli and Nagl that would leave one ride available.

Who will ride for Martin Honda? CAS Honda? Any new teams joining the serie? Will all current team continue?

I find it strange that Honda ever since Coppins and Pichon left them never really had a good rider in MX1. Even weirder is they havent't had a top rider in MX2 for decades (Except Musquin before he went to KTM from Honda privateer)

I never doubted the talent of Strijbos. This year he has proved himself again and raised his stocks after two terrible years.

More american riders would be fun to see. I would like if we got a US rider fast enough to run top 5 consistently.

Bobreyshev is a keeper for all teams, like a De Dycker with better starts. If Barr is as fast as you say he would fit in nice in CAS by being brittish as well.

I admire BT for his riding style, one of the most beatiful out there. I don't think you can fit three so strong individuals into one team (KTM)
I would love to see him in Martin Honda. They deserve some succes but I think he is pretty expensive to hire which always seems to be a bigger problem for Honda than for other teams.

Do you know anything about LS Motors Honda Leok/Guarnieri?

Hopefully there's a bright future ahead of him. Besides Herlings he must be the find of the season consistently runnng top 10.

I wouldn't be too surprised to see him on a KTM next year, maybe even a factory ride.

I wish he was swedish...=)

You have the better rider, we have the better event. In our part of Europe we have to settle for one or the other it seems. I hope it works out great for Harri!

Thanks Shenzi. That answered a lot of questions actually. But also made a few new ones pop up =)

Summer is conducive to the announcements of teams and you start to get an idea of the plateau in 2011, although there is still a lot of unknowns to be lifted. Petit tour d'horizon à la veille de ce GP de Loket… A quick look at the eve of the GP Loket ...

Tommy disputera le SX côte Ouest avant de venir faire les GP, et Max s'alignera lui en championnat de France. Tommy will play the SX West Coast before coming to the GP, and Max will match him in the league of France. Espérons qu'il restera une place pour un jeune français dans ce team. Hopefully it will remain a place for a young French in this team. Pour Valentin Teillet par exemple ? For Valentin Teillet example? En MX1, il n'est pas impossible qu'un troisième homme soit finalement aligné aux côtés de Xavier Boog et Jonathan Barragan. In MX1, it is not impossible that a third man is finally aligned alongside Xavier Boog and Jonathan Barragan. Il ya du monde sur le marché ! There are people on the market! Chez Bud, Gregory Aranda – qui a repris l'entrainement et aimerait bien rouler à La Tremblade – a encore un an de contrat et Stéphane Dassé nous a confirmé le week-end prochain continuer à aligner deux - voir trois - Kawasaki, sans préciser dans quelle catégorie. In Bud, Gregory Aranda - which took over the training and would love to ride in The Tremblade - still has one year contract and Stephane Dassé we confirmed the next weekend to continue to align two - even three - Kawasaki, without specifying which category.

Mini revolution in red, Honda unveiled a three-year program and for the first time in many years Roger Harvey budget in hand before it is too late.

Steve Ramon pourrait arriver dans la structure Belge, aux côtés de David Guarneri qui a re-signé. Steve Ramon could happen in the structure Belgian, alongside David Guarneri has re-signed. Les teams Cas et SRS perdent l'aide des rouges, ce qui pourrait entrainer la disparition des seconds. The teams lose the case and SRS using red, which could lead to the disappearance of the latter. Chez Cas, on affirme avoir signé pour 2011 un contrat avec un gros sponsor et on se réjouit de ne plus avoir de soutien officiel puisque ce sponsor serait en concurrence avec Honda ! In case it says it has signed a contract for 2011 with a big sponsor and we are delighted to have no official support since the sponsor would compete with Honda! Il n'y aura malheureusement pas de budget pour un programme MX2, dommage ! There will unfortunately be no budget for a program MX2, shame!

KTM et Suzuki en "stand by " KTM and Suzuki in "standby"
Avec trois de ses quatre pilotes officiels signés, il reste une place chez KTM pour le MX2. With three of its four official drivers signed, it remains a place in the MX2 for KTM. Pour qui ? For whom? Van Horebeek serait sur les rangs, tout comme Joel Roelants on imagine, mais encore ? Van Horebeek would be in the running, as Joel Roelants we imagine, but still? Dans nos rangs, HDI a confirmé qu'ils seraient toujours là en 2011, mais comme chez Bud on ne sait pas encore dans quelle catégorie et avec quel(s) pilote(s). In our ranks, HDI has confirmed they are still there in 2011, but as with Bud is not known yet how and with what type (s) driver (s). Chez Suzuki, Clément Desalle devrait finalement rester en Europe et avoir un nouvel équipier à ses côtés, là encore, le nom de Bobryshev est cité. At Suzuki, Desalle should stay in Europe and finally have a new teammate at his side, again, the name Bobrysheva is cited. En principe le team MX2 ne devrait guère évoluer, mais on sait que Ken Roczen est très sollicité et un doute subsiste quand à l'avenir du prodige Allemand que l'on pensait lié pour toujours aux jaunes. In principle the MX2 team should change little, but we know that Ken is in high demand Roczen and when in doubt the future of German prodigy thought to be forever associated with yellow. Wait and see ! Wait and see!

À Loket, Pascal haudiquert. At Loket Pascal haudiquert.

I fail somehow when I try to copy the translated version. Find the article on Motoverte and copy the url to google transle. That makes it a lot easier =)

Nagl has resigned for KTM. Will again be teammate with Cairoli. Don't know anything about Goncalves though.
