So Brands GP moves to where the SBK round used to be
May is going to be a busy month, the NW200 that some riders/teams will also be taking part is on May 16th.I got my motorcycle jacket, but I'm walking all the time...

Crescent Suzuki will be a single bike team as Relentless Suzuki becomes the official Suzuki team in BSB and Watanabe moves there alongside Ian Lowry.
Hawk Kawasaki became Buildbase Kawasaki for 2009 and Jon Laverty and Tristan Palmer will be racing for them in the championship.
Michael Laverty hasnt signed anywhere yet. No Ducatis in 2009
here's how the lineup looks so far

There wont be any Ducatis in BSB next season.I got my motorcycle jacket, but I'm walking all the time...

What a change, for a while it seemed to be like a Ducati cup, but now none. Will miss the sound of the V twin powering out of CLub Chicane at Thruxton.

MAR Kawasaki - Brian McCormack (Cup) & Malcolm Ashley? (Cup)

Amongst others, Scott Smart and Michael Laverty are currently seatless."Of course, what many people tend to forget is that Glen Richards was 2nd in the 1993 Australian 125cc championship" - Jack Burnicle on BSB at Snetterton, June 2008
I think the biggest question is, as usual per gravel rallies, will the Hyundais hold together? Long day with no service tomorrow...
