Seewer unemployed and so is Jasikonis and the whole MX2 Team.
Whose fault is it?
The sport in general?
The immense cost of the world chamionship run by Luongo?
Or Suzuki itself?

GET is involved.
I'm 100% in favor of something like that. Maybe even spec tires like in MotoGP.
With this said, i don't buy that rumor. MX2 team might go away but not the 450 MXGP team. I just can't see how Everts closes the MXGP team, that would be embarrassing for him and Suzuki.
The Shop
Are they gonna drop Moto completely or how do they want to sell bikes with 0 exposure?
And all that just after they released a new bike...
How long is the deal between JGR & Suzuki?
Seriously, the math doesn't add up. Tip of the iceberg here.
And I blame Vitals 450 shootout, shame on you Michael!
Also will be interesting to see what everts will do now. Hope he can help AJ get a decent ride
sucks.... massively...
It can't be a money issue because little itty-bitty TM fields an MXGP team. Boutique brands Beta, Sherco and GasGas field WEC teams and have developed their own unique bikes. It's not 2008 anymore. We might not be in the heyday of bike sales but the market isn't in the gutter anymore is it?
I'm really curious how this JGR alliance is going to work out. Based on Suzuki's record, it does not seem wise to do business with them.
How do they plan on promoting the "new" (revised) 450F in Europe without a team in MXGP?
they had the best riders under contract Carmichael, Roczen etc. just to name a few... It's a PR issue not the bike at least that's how I see it, agree to disagree
Sucks.
For me there is only one way for Suzuki: Invest heavily in R&D or be gone. Look at Yami and Honda. KTM was taking over, they reacted, spent the money and now Yami sells an awful lot of 250f and Honda their 450.
Sucks badly.
Pit Row
only this cost serious money, Roczen's contract was a bargain in comparison
Suzuki isn't a small business , and if companies like Sherco and Beta can field race teams......seriously , what the hell?
