I just read that Marvin Musquin was not going to be on Team France for the MXoN. Why? I agree that Romain Febvre is amazing...but Marvin has proven that he can run with & beat almost anybody here. Seems to me France would pick him in a second. Was it France's decision or his?
That can't be said for Marvin, he was amazing last year but he has had a couple of really bad ones before that.
But now with Ferrandis injury he could possibly ride the 250? If not, Paturel will take Ferrandis place.
I think it's probably a case of Marvin not wanting to ride a 250 after being on a 450 all season, and they feel that Febvre and Paulin are better picks for the 450 rides, which I have to say I agree with

MXGP Febvre
MX2 Ferrandis (out) / Paturel
Open Musquin instead of Paulin
easy again for team France...
Anyway correct me if I'm wrong but I think I know why the french federation has decided to not call Musquin... this Tuesday and Wednesday team France will be at Maggiora testing but Marvin is in the US and won't be there so... could this be the reason for not being chosen?

If Webb stayed on a 250 for that event, Dungey was willing to race (instead of being forced to do the SMX Cup), joined by Tomac would be the best team on paper by a long ways. It's a shame that we won't see it.
