What's the news for next year are all the riders staying put ? From a UK point of view we know that Brown has resigned for Gas Gas but as far as I know there have been no other announcements. I Guess the top 4 in the WTC signed a while ago but with new manufacturers starting up maybe there is about to be some activity on the transfer front ?

Spill the beans someone

Just for once James tell us something. As you know scorpa is sherco so lets seee.........

Aye, you have a point there about Sherco which I forgot ... but we'll see. Id love to say but I just can't because he might be spinning a few plates at once and I dont want to mess it up for him , which is obviously right.

It'll all come out on the wash

An important year for Pol, he was a pretty hot prospect at one time and lost a little ground through injury and things didn't work out too well on the JTG.

Changing bikes and teams is always a difficult decision, throughout time riders have always regretted moves and hindsight is a wonderful thing but a change in bike / team can and does give some riders that little extra boost they need. When Bou moved from Beta to Honda who would have predicted how dominant he would be but that was a proven bike. I really do hope Dabill will do well with Vertigo, I wonder what the highest WTC ranking a rider has achieved on a brand new bike in it's first year of competition? I'm thinking Cammozzi or Scorpa?, Fajardo Ossa?,

His garage is full of Shercos and he genuinely thinks it will stay the same ... but he also knows that anything is possible. A Scorpa ride sounds unlikely. Has a new Italian minder- nice guy and they manage to communicate very well . The minder knows what is required and was just ready and all was good .... but it'll be interesting to keep an eye on .Chocolate cake with a liquor centre at 9am was a bit rich. Pol practising hard with Bou and Fuji watching.

think scorpa need to have someone to be taken seriously JTG ditto

very true, if scorpa at world level could get some exposure and show the bike is good that would help enormously, but that choice is something Sherco appear unwilling to do.

JTG its the money surely?
