NAD1 Posted November 6, 2017 Report Share Posted November 6, 2017 If the rumours are true Gas Gas will be boosting their Trial GP ranks with both Busto and Fajardo for 2018 not confirmed officially yet, but that's what being mentioned Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heffergm Posted November 6, 2017 Report Share Posted November 6, 2017 (edited) Nah, I don't buy it. Busto and Bou seem pretty happy together, with Busto the clear successor, and they both know it. I can't imagine GasGas can offer Busto more money than Honda, so unless he's dreadfully unhappy there, I can't see any reason he'd leave. Guess we'll find out!

heffergm Posted November 6, 2017 Report Share Posted November 6, 2017 Having said that, there is a great post on Instagram by Fuji of all the 'off-road' guys, including Marquez, but Busto isn't to be found. I'm sure the conspiracy theorists will enjoy it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baldilocks Posted November 6, 2017 Report Share Posted November 6, 2017 I hope it's wrong, if gas gas are going to support Busto, Fajardo and Dabill they've learnt nothing. Also what happens to the Peace brothers, Jack Price, Grattarola, Farre, Kadlec? Way to many riders already 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul7 Posted November 6, 2017 Report Share Posted November 6, 2017 Toni Bou's facebook page says he stay's. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heffergm Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 I think GG going after Busto would be a bold move... and would definitely indicate they put a lot of emphasis on the bikes, GP and the results, which I think would be great for them as a company. But as mentioned, carrying three guys on the payroll seems crazy. Has Dibs been confirmed for 2018 already or no? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cackallacky Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 Interesting stuff in the Trials offseason! My Trials Draft Picks for 2018: Fajardo - Yes, GG. Done deal. Busto - Stays put (tho tempted by a big GG offer) Dibs - Vertigo re-romance to ride off into the sunset with... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnyc21 Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 My guess If Busto moves to GG, then Dibs is back with Beta... who knows but I am much more sure about Bou stays, Raga stays. Fajardo to GG... time will tell! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirdabalot Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 I've been tempted by an offer of a meal deal at Greggs 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmyl Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 Share the deal - much more interesting than wtc. bou is going to win and everybody will still be moaning stop allowed - no stop .yes he did - no hi didn’t . if busty to gg then Toby to mont may be best move of all??

hgas Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 I’d say judging by the Honda racing post and Fuji’s posts on social media regarding 2018 then busto has definitely gone , I’d say it’s a very bold move indeed if he has , but if he’s shrewd enough he could mould the gas gas around himself and be there next Adam raga , fajardo will get bored again in two years time and move on again , 2018 is shaping up to be a very very interesting year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nigel dabster Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 Without going into deep stats Fajardo hasnt improved for the last 5 years. Sherco should have got him. If Busto goes to GG then its going to be a waiting game till Toni goes off the boil but with the way hes riding and his salary why would he. ever?

hgas Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 I’m sure people said the same about dougie back in the day , Toni won’t reign forever , busto is the only one at the moment who can really start to challenge him soon , his results will start coming in I’m sure , maybe he’s moved to step out of bou’s shadow and go it alone 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
