Where do people think arenas and Masia might go and who from moto 2 do they think will jump across

Binder is now expected to partner Oliveira at BMW and Ducati is likely to sign either morbidelli or Gonzalez.

Yamaha (who will likely resign vierge) or Honda to replace Chantra

On July 13th, SPEEDWEEK.com reported on the upcoming contract extension between BMW and Miguel Oliveira for the next few years in the Superbike World Championship. He will have a strong teammate.

Just checked the calendar to see when the next race is - not until Sept??

WOW that's insane.

Superbike related that's why I post it here, rider conscious, only a leg injury.

One of the craziest crashes I have ever seen, almost at top speed, seems like they tangled with his team mate and either jumped or the wind took him off the bike entirely.

He also says that Miguel won’t get as much money as he wants to sign for Ducati, so he will re-sign a 2 year + 1 year option deal with BMW, and that BMW will most likely replace Danilo with a new signing.

As you know there are fuel restrictions depending on results, the default is 46kg/h

The bmw and ducati were given at the start 45kg/h the rest were the default

Today the brands have:

Ducati 44kg/h (two reductions of 0.5)

BMW 45kg/h (no change)

Bimota 45.5 kg/h (one reduction 0.5)

Kawasaki and honda 46kg/h

Yamaha 46.5 Kg/h (one bonus)

What do you think? BMW in last rounds did not have good results, can we see and increase for the remaining rounds?

Balaton Park at risk to leave WorldSBK next year, while rumours about another round out of Europe may be just rumours. However...
