Well, that settles it. We now know where Mad Max is going... back home to where he started.

Giannis is right.  Corser has signed a 2 year deal with BMW.  Hopefully Spies will get a top ride somewhere (yamaha italy would be good).

By the way, Takahashi seems to be going to MotoGP with team Scott next year.  With Kallio also moving up, it will be a good year!

Say bye bye to the 250ccGP bikes. This is truly a bummer. I love those races... big deal, another 600cc in-line four stroke class. Whoppeee... Tongue Angry

"Future of the 250cc class

MSMA decided unanimously to propose to the Grand Prix Commission the following as from 2011: 4-stroke, 4-cylinder maximum, 600cc maximum engines, free chassis. A detailed proposal will be studied by the other members of the Commission. "

That is a bummer.  The 250 class has had some of the more truly exciting races this year ( as usual ).  Also, the new rules seem to prohibit the 7-cyclinder 2-stroke 900cc engines I was hoping to see developed...

Sounds like the old 125cc GP days when they had multi cylinders and more gears in the box than their wheels had spokes!! Took all the fun out of it when they said one piston and six speeds. Cry
