I get it, mind you WSB Riders done seem to perform in the GP world.
I dont think Jack would be expensive now by any means. I would suggest a bargin price.

anyway maybe some announcements soon.

flatlandsman has been held in scrutiny for further testing
Toprak is a very special rider in my opinion so would be able to adjust better than say a Bayliss or Edwards, who Colin in particular had a long career in GP after dominating SBK, as would Spies have potentially done were it not for injury.

I guess one indicated might be me. I wont be trackside unfortunately, be further South , but I will be watching live 'barside' in the local sports 'English' pub. I have already checked if they still show live F1 and MotoGP in English.

Indeed, You. As to F1 in English, is it really important? I remember many bars, restaurants and hotels in your area to be held by Brits. Good ambiance I'd say. Have fun and don't forget they drive on the wrong side over there…

What I find worrying is when a real specialist of the series say that he thinks the hegemony of Ducati should last at least till 2027. I hope he's wrong.

Well for this Aussie, I hope Miller is announced at Pramac this weekend.
Thats about the only seat left and his experience will surely help them develop a bike.

I don't hope they'll stop their efforts before the last race together with Ducati being fair play and supplying the best bikes possible.
