Wrong on all of it.
I can’t see anything else for Elzinga, he has done nothing after his emx title. Maybe a move back to his former TBS team?
Will Kemea do the MX2 and MXGP program for Yamaha? Together with the relocation of the Yamaha HQ to Italy? And what about the MJC and VHR teams, will they stand?
Where will Ricardo Bauer, Aaron Katona or Ernecker land for 2027? Those are some factory supported youngsters right? Seems like Venrooy will move into a MXGP only team.
Also curious what BUD Racing will do coming into 2027, they always find a new talent somewhere around the globe.
Bud Racing probably with Cannon and Alvisi for 2027...
That makes perfectly sense, one year of building and 2028 ready for a championship for Alvisi.

Ernecker will stay with Norman KTM (euro MX2). And Bauer will ride for SS24 KTM (euro MX2).
There has to be some pressure on Zanocz, it seems like he has completely stagnated and i doubt KTM will want to support him much longer if he can't take a significant step up.
Katona will also be going to Norman KTM
I would think the Pootjes-method: put him at a smaller team to honor ktm's contractual obliguations and let Zanocz figure things out himself... either he gets back to what he did at Honda or its over at ktm once the contract ends
One of those 3 youngsters will more than likely end up at SS24
I'm sure there's strong personal or financial reasons for Mewse staying at home, but what a waste of our best talent in a generation..
Do we know why Mewes doesn’t want to ride the nations? I refuse to believe they would choose Hammal over him.
I've heard rumors that Simpson broke up with Gabriel KTM?
Walvoort has had health issues. Should be back on the bike in the coming weeks.
Zanocz will be back on a supported KTM next year...
Is Jonass going to be the only guy on a factory Kawi 450? I’m excited to see what Febvre can do on the Ducati
Final round of Motul British Championship this sunday, hopefully have some news from that .
Livestream from 11.30 AM UK time.
Will post a link.
Well, he had some bike issues this year as well
false rumor. Shaun and Simon are all good
Pit Row
Yeah most teams do. Sofian and Jens are all good. If Jens doesn’t get something he will be on the gate with sb ktm again. Maybe you will see him in the USA even
Eyvgeny Bobreyshev returns to MX1 action with SC SportHomes Husqvarna squad this weekend at Blaxhall. MXGB.
I didn't say anything about him and his current team, but I guess that multiple mechanical issues would get into your head as a rider and give friction internally. I'd love to see him on a team like for example Venrooy KTM, but for some reason he never really got into a top (or semi factory) team - even though he has the speed..
Well i feel a team like van Venrooy is used by KTM to place younger talents that potentially can grow in to factory riders. Like Valk and Zanocz (although that didnt work out that way). Walvoort is a good rider, but i can see why he wouldnt be considered potential factory rider material.
And there are just really not that many options for MX2 at teams a level below van Venrooy. Its why guys like Prugnieres, Oliver, Guyon, Karssemakers, etc struggled (at times) to have a ride in MX2.
Nobody givng a chance to Byron Dennis in Europe ? Guy did really good those last few races.
Yeah he was impressive. I figured he would simply continue with CAT Moto but havnt heard anything. Gatedrop rumoured that team to do MX2 with one rider so maybe with him?
He's been riding with a knee injury and got it checked after Turkey. It's because of his and Katona's injuries Hungary pulled out of this years MXoN.
As an outsider, that team looks great for upcoming EMX250 and factory supported MX2 riders. No flashy trucks and 300 team members, but decent race bikes with good engine packages. Owens, Fredsoe and Bellei all made significant steps this year.
Any news regarding Isak Gifting ?
JK Yamaha, do they have a place in the "new" Yamaha reorganisation for 2027?
Sounds like Julius Mikula and Ricardo Bauer to ss24. Also Kawsaki running Jonass only on the 450.
I thought Mikula was going to Factory Honda, would be a huge capture for SS24. Bauer will do well in EMX250
If Mikula will go to SS24 then alot of people will be really surprised. He was more often to be seen at HRC Honda truck the last few races then his own truck.
