Hutten has announced it on mxvice that they have parted from Yamaha

What a shit career move that was from Watson. And i said it when it got announced, i did not understand how some people (incl. Lewis) were excited by the move. Still to this day i haven't seen a guy go from being a full-time GP rider to European rounds only and become better/take steps forward in their careers.

Listening to Big Lew it sounds like they have been seen as under delivering by Yamaha Japan. I think he said Yam Japan are going to take on a larger role with the Yamaha programs moving forward.

I would imagine that Zanocz only took the KTM deal this offseason if it was a multi-year deal. I mean he must have been in demand after finishing 2nd in emx250 in your rookie season after winning emx125 the year before. obviously only speculating from my side, but i would be surprised if he is a free agent this offseason. So i would expect him back at a supported KTM team in '27.

Valin resigned at KRT. Garcia signed at KRT aswell.

If Gajser has any title aspirations left, it has to happen here to relaunch his ambitions. It's "his" track, with a lot of Slovenian fans attending and he won his very first GP here in 2015, after beating Herlings straight up on his semi-factory Honda Gariboldi. He won last year aswell with a 2-1-1, and won 6 times in total at Pietramurata. If it doesn't work for him here, I'm afraid it won't work at all during the rest of the season on a regular basis.

I think you are wrong on that. From what I have been told, most of his budget comes from the Slovenia government. I think he gets a little backing from KTM, but not nearly what people think. Marcel Stauffer, Michael Sandner do most of the race testing.

de Wolf starting to ride really good now after being injured early in season, week off then to a more sandy track could see him get a podium soon!

García is a step above. Mancinni rode great today with the Ducati. Tiburcio confirms his speed in Almonte.

To go from a 3rd place race finish to not qualify is crazy.

Triumph boys are always on front, no Matter what session. Incredible what Triumph is building in that little time of Racing.

Coenen will go 1-1-1 this weekend

Attendance for a swiss GP could be huge, swiss fans really love motocross! I've been to a lot of swiss world championship rounds in the past, and they always were a great success... But this place (Frauenfeld new track and location) is totally a wrong one. Bring back Payerne (Combremont le Petit) for 2027 !

Imo its not budget why all these guys stay in EMX250. Yes if you want to do the full season MX2 then obviously it costs more. But for the guys who now do 10-14 EMX rounds there is no cost difference to ride EMX250 or MX2 for the same number of rounds and you can be competitive. Skovbjerg, Greutmann, Reichl, Fredsoe, Owens, Kees, Mesters, Doensen etc all do some wildcards last year, and they were clearly competitive. Reichl and Kees finished in the points on the lead lap in Loket, Greutman & Skovbjerg did the same in Lommel (Skovbjerg even...

It's a bit mixed feelings at the moment, doing either EMX250 or MX2 European GP's. Jens Walvoort had some flashes of brilliance in EMX250 (fastest in time practice in Oss and a few top 10s), but was nowhere close to regular podium results. All due to being way too small for a 250 and a few injury setbacks. He did grow a lot and added a lot of muscle and made the step to MX2, with the guidance of Marc de Reuver. Now he is a regular top 10 rider. I think quite a lot of riders would benefit more...

After a 5 hours of car driving, im at home now. Gp was good, good Racing, good track and good amostphere Only dissapointed with organization. 1.5 hours waiting to enter on saturday even i bought online tickets, parking cost 10€ ( first GP that i went that you have to pay) and entry and out wasnt fast. Madrid had better organization in term of logistisc. Mx2 races was intense. The pace was so high. What a shame for Farres having that problem on gearbox, could be an amazing day for him. CM8 was fast all weekend long. He deserves that...

Yeah i think this is a keeper, good crowd and nice track. Now just make it a combi with Portugal GP and imo its a good way to start the season in Europe.

Also an absolutely lovely track, compared to the previous hardpack one in Spain. Good crowd as well
