HRC have informed Evgeny Bobryshev that he is no longer needed under the red roof, meaning, along with Max Nagl, Tommy Searle, Benoit Paturel, Kevin Strijbos, Jordi Tixier and Valentin Guillot to mention a few are looking for a ride in 2018 in the big bike class.


Kind of surprised, bobby seemed like a good fit for a # 2 guy.

Really surprising. He's been great for them for years really, will be interesting to see where he goes now, and who takes his place. Everyone of his calibre or better is already locked into deals, I'm guessing HRC must have something up their sleeves, but it'll be very interesting to see who/what it is

Nagl? seems to be the fastest and most consistent out of the bunch of free agents in the MX1 class.

Damn, I am a little surprised at this.

I don't think anyone out there is an upgrade to him.

Be cool to see an AMA guy full this spot. No names mentioned thoughSmile

Bobby is a frustrating rider he's very talented but always been a nearly man.

For me no surprise, some podiums, but nothing more. But is awesome how long he kept seat by Factory Honda.

Husky told Nagl they're not extending his contract. They continue with Paulin and Anstie.

Didn't Nagl ride for HRC once?

Yeah not long ago, but he didn't have great results. Kept getting injured from what I remember.

It would be great to see Barcia over here.

As of now this is only a rumour as far as I know. Where did you read this as a fact?
In my opinion bobry is a good second rider though. 3rd place mxgp championship 2015, 5th place mxgp championship 2016. He also started off 2017 well but got an injury.

How on earth can people think a guy getting the flick from the team that he landed at after gettingvthe flick from factory Honda can end up back there.

Strange. I'd read a couple of interviews with Roger Harvey where he sang Bobryshev's praises as really good fit and a great development rider, and they intended to retain him

Money? and its a top ride? People have short memories when they are offered a paid factory ride.

P.S. when you here that kind of stuff is usually 1 week before they hand you a pink slip. That kind of stuff is why No one believes anything these guys say.

recent twitter posts by JGR seem to indicate he is staying put in the US
