Saw this coming. Hopefully Thai round isn't cancelled

Back when WSBK used to be awesome. The sad thing is Pasir Gudang might be chopped down to bits

Whole damn thing or only the buildings? Because judging from the pics circulated online, only the buildings are chopped down. If they wanna rebuild new one, that's good bcoz the facilities are a bit outdated.

No Marquez domination at Sachsenring might be a good news but no Assen is a bummer.

Back when Honda actually made great bikes like RC51 just to prove Ducati that they can build a v-twin. And they even beat them at their own game (at their backyard no less). Fireblade nowadays... nothing special at all

Pending official statement

Slowpoke news.

So far the plan is Miller replacing Petrux & Petrux going to WSBK to replace Chaz Davies.

I think the hardest part is finding Dovi's replacement. Should Dovi leave, they'll need anyone an alien that can consistently beat Marquez outright.

No Philip Island is a huge blow considering they've been delivering a lot of great races for over 2 decades. At this rate might as well just race at mainland Europe & no flyaway races.

Hardly a surprise

I don't know if this is a good decision. He's not even the best rookie rider in last year's Moto2 despite being a former Moto3 champion (in fairness he's riding a KTM).

Biggest blow yet

Double headers at Aragon & Valencia? Would rather have Estoril & Portimao

Another WSBK classic from Ducati v-twin vs Honda V4 era



Bonus: what Ostkurve looks like nowadays (found on FB, pic taken last month)

Tun M's nephew.

Pretty much confirms Pol is joining Honda... or is it?

Great talent but outweighed by attitude problems. Busted for drug abuse once long before Iannone.

Seems like Alex Marquez (probably on factory bike & contract) & Nakagami (probably still on 1-year old bike) for LCR next year. I'm bored of watching Crutchlow crashing anyway.
