"...Pitt will fall under the technical direction of Johan Stigefelt. The Swede was forced to shelve his plans to continue his own Stiggy Racing team for 2010, after sponsorship problems left the team in financial chaos. Stigefelt's ability to manage a team was never in doubt, and the Swede joins Reitwagen Racing in a technical capacity....[/]
guess that puts the nail in the Stiggy coffin altogether...cause I bet he won't want to leave the clutches of BMW...

Why in the world would you take Pitt over Mladin?

or maybe he was trying to dictate too many terms and they said to hell with this guy and went with someone who was more than happy to just have a paid ride???

Like what? I can think of a few as well like money, ego, etc but on the other hand Pitt was also a bit of a flop in WSBK last time.

he know the tracks, he's younger, he's a world champ, he's been on WSS WSBK and GP bikes, he's a well respected development rider, he's a brit, etc etc
and a lot less expensive, i bet.

Andrew Pitt born 19 February 1976 (1976-02-19) (age 33) in Kempsey, New South Wales,
Australia
...
and, fwiw, pitt is only four years younger than mladin.
(i'm surprised, it thought pitt was younger than that.)
