MXGP Rumours/Silly season

Yes, he want more, same like Mikula.

 Let go by Honda, and picked up by KRT, is what i heard.  Details were unclear, so i dont know 100%, but he must be one of the hardest working guys there is. 

Australian Ky Woods signed for KMP Honda Racing to race in the ADAC MX Masters and the EMX250 rounds of Teutschenthal, Lommel and Arnhem.

Joe Brookes left Nationwide Signs Triumph to race on a private strucured Honda.

Joe Brookes hasn’t left “a team” it’s his dads company nationwide signs, merely just changed brands due to reliability of the triumph!

As above, just a brand swap for a private team. 

Everything else stays the same. 

Sheesh, no need to bite my head off.

Not meant to come across like that! Just letting you know 

He wasnt, he was just clarifying the news, if it was reported as that , when you picked it up. 

I didnt read it as a criticism. 

Very strange story. Something must have happened. Jeffrey took him to Honda, right?

Indeed. Dunno what the story is but mostly it is "all about the money".

Francisco Garcia and Jake Cannon to race Southwick. 

Mattia Guagdanini broke his collarnone again and needs surgery. Shame, he was riding good lately. Great talent with bad luck

Mathys Boisramé will race Pala and Hangtown.

Roan van de Moosdijk will race RedBud and Southwick.

Fast l, but lots of injuries. He’s definitely a “what could have been” had he stayed healthy. He also moved out of MX2 pretty dang quick as well. Hopefully he can turn it around. 

JK Yamaha fill in ride for Paturel (french and german GP).

I know it’s not strictly MXGP, but does anyone know about the Indonesian guy that’s racing the ADAC for Becker Racing this weekend? Will he maybe be doing EMX/GPs?

dont know if he is planning to do, but he was 15 seconds of the pace in qualifying at last adac race so i dont think it should be a topic for him now.

Hey super off topic but looking for help from a euro friend to get some boots from a euro website shipped to me in the USA.

I cannot order from the website, if you ordered and then shipped to me, I could pay for the item and the shipping of course, 

Any one willing to help, thanks! I’m putting this in here since the gp posts bring the most “across the pond friends” in the same room.

Message me if anyone could help, I have PayPal to send the money or Apple Pay, not sure how else, but let me know what could work, please no scammer nonsense, most of us here have been on here for years.

Thanks!!

Seewer and Ducati finally part ways

Hmm.. in for outdoors at HEP?

The writing was on the wall, but why didn’t they part ways before the 5 week break?

Seewer got paid 5 more weeks? Team manager said 5 weeks ago they will have new parts after break but results were same. 

You can send me a pb. I’ll see what i can do.

Elzinga & Beta have parted ways.

And in at Van Venrooy KTM

Douwe van Mechgelen Ends Partnership with TM Racing

Douwe van Mechgelen has announced that he has decided to end his partnership with TM Racing with immediate effect. The decision comes after a difficult period in which the Belgian rider faced ongoing technical problems and suffered a heavy crash during the EMX250 race at the MXGP of Latvia in Kegums.

The past few months have been particularly challenging for Van Mechgelen. Technical issues continued to pile up, preventing him from competing under optimal conditions.
During the first moto in Latvia, misfortune struck once again. Upon landing from a jump, the triple clamp on his motorcycle broke, resulting in a serious crash. Due to the consequences of the accident, he was unable to continue his race weekend.

“It’s unfortunate that things turned out this way. The last six months have been extremely difficult. During the first moto, I suffered a heavy crash because the handlebar triple clamp broke upon landing. This is a defect that should never occur under any circumstances.”

Although Van Mechgelen initially attempted to line up for the second moto, it ultimately proved impossible.

“As a result of the crash, I was in a lot of pain and also suffered a mild concussion. I tried to make it to the start of the second moto, but in the end, it just wasn’t possible.”
After the weekend, the final decision was made. While his cooperation with the team will continue, his chapter with TM Racing has come to an end.

“As you may have already guessed, we have decided to end our partnership with TM. Our cooperation with the team will remain in place. We will announce our future plans at a later date, but one thing is certain: this was my final appearance on a TM motorcycle.

This decision is not based solely on what happened this weekend. It is the result of an accumulation of various problems and circumstances that have occurred over a longer period of time. Despite everything, I would like to thank TM for the cooperation.”
For Van Mechgelen, this marks the end of a difficult chapter, but also the beginning of a new one.

Geez they are not holding back in that press release 

TM is the real deal.

😁

1-jeremy seewer will be benistant's replacement from Agueda 

2-Febvre has received an offer from Triumph for more than 1 million euros.

3-Farres has a lot of interest from riders for 2027, both for the 450MXGP and the 250AMA, all from top teams, one of them obviously being Triumph for the MXGP.

They should’ve threw some Luxon clamps on that bad boy
