Rumours MotoGP 2003
O.K. So i've heard this: Max Biaggi and Tohru Ukawa will be riding Pons Hondas with Pramac sponsorship. Loris Capirossi is going to Ducati, that is sure and done. Alex Barros is rumoured to ride the new Kawasaki for next year.

I heard on the MotoGP telecast that Biaggi's deal with Pramac had fallen through and that Biaggi could end up back at Yamaha!!!

Pitt and Barros is the rumour for Kawasaki. It was said on Eurosport that Biaggi's deal is in trouble and he could be back with Yamaha again next season! Question is, what sponsor as Marlboro look set to leave.

Marboro have left they are now with Ducati and Biaggi will not go back to Yamaha not on the works bike anyway that looks likely to go to Melandri teaming up with Checa, that's a weak rider line up for my money. Andrew Pitt has been signed officially for weeks now and the second rider is as yet undecided. Eric Bostrom and Yanagawa will front the GP bike testing and development project alongside Pitt and the second rider with Eric in the picture for a future full time GP ride based on results in AMA. Eric will also contest several hand picked events in GP when his AMA commitments allow him to. The Kawasaki bosses have stressed there is unlimited cash for the GP project so no constraints there.

i think that was just the media just making a big deal out of the fact that nothing has been signed.
