I think if Shane won either title he would spend a year defending it in 2019 as is his right. After that it would be hard to guess which spots would be open. JGR sure seems like a good landing spot for an incoming rookie with potential.
The Shop
He was supposed to be better in every way. The bike was better(Febvre, Tonus showed it in GPs/MXDN and Barcia at A1), he was more prepared, no off season races.
It resulted in the same Cooper Webb as in 2017.
But the season is long, he can make it alright. But it started just like 2017.
He dominated A1.
But this thread is not about Webb so lets not derail it too much.
About the 2nd spot at KTM, I don't think Tickle who is under rated will give his ride easily. He is fit, solid, perfect 2nd rider and actually has a top 3 top 5 speed now. DeCoster wouldnt have signed him if he was not believing in his potential. He came from really far at A1 to a good 8th; without the little bug while leading his heat, a good grid and a start in the main may have placed him much closer to the podium too.
Tickle shines in MX. N this where I suspect you will see the effect of team trainer come in...
