Fajardo hasn't been out of the top 5 in the last decade. Who would you choose to represent you in Trial GP? Dibs every time. Best in GB. Bike sales come first....if thats why they do the WTC.

I think that's fair enough if he rides in GB, but what if he chooses not to ride British championship or Scottish. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tricky dicky Posted November 13, 2017 Report Share Posted November 13, 2017 Grattarola will be on a Mont of some variety next year and I think GG will be fielding a pretty strong squad. Watch this space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
worlez Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 Doesn't Dibs have another year left on his GG contract? All the odds are in Bou's favour to take at least the next couple of years of titles. I can see the merit in GG wanting to pick up as many of the top 10 as possible after Bou and Raga - if they are trying to re-establish GG market share having the top 10 flooded with their bikes will be positive for machine development and visibility. Every podium that their riders achieve will be a knock against the perception that the Honda's are the most competitive bikes. Also, this is going to be interesting for seeing how much advantage the works 4RT's offer. If Busto remains consistent on a GG it gives a measure of how much impact the bike does or doesn't have. Puts HRC in an interesting position. I can't really identify a rider of the younger generation that have Busto's potential, so when Bou and Fuji eventually decline who will they pick up that will challenge Busto?

NAD1 Posted November 17, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2017 More pics online from ‘team HRC’ Bou ✅ Fuji ✅ Busto ❌ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heffergm Posted November 17, 2017 Report Share Posted November 17, 2017 Yeah, seems pretty clear that Busto is gone, but where he went is as yet a mystery (ok, well, not so much a mystery as not yet announced :)) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hgas Posted November 17, 2017 Report Share Posted November 17, 2017 He put a video up on instagram of himself and Toni bou practising on Wednesday both on montesas, I thought it would have been announced by now , will dabill stay at gasgas aswell?

NAD1 Posted November 17, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2017 I’d assume that, like most riders, he’d be contracted for the year e.g. 31st december. As such he’ll still be HRC till then. Grattarola posting pics with Fuji and Honda too.. not new ones but with Honda’s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nigel dabster Posted November 18, 2017 Report Share Posted November 18, 2017 Busto @worlez it's a done deal, in Catalyuna at moment and was reliably informed by someone here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neils on wheels Posted November 18, 2017 Report Share Posted November 18, 2017 Is it possible that Gas Gas succeed in signing Busto & thus don't sign Fajardo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heffergm Posted November 18, 2017 Report Share Posted November 18, 2017 I was under the impression Fajardo was already a done deal. I think the only question mark is Dabil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NAD1 Posted November 18, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2017 Similar to Dabster.. been told it’s done - Fajardo and Busto Dibs - not sure. Beta I assume Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
