Arts degree! :rotflmao:
Sadly it looks like Ant is in the growing list of good riders without a ride this year. Tough time to be a professional motorcycle racer in these tough times of dwindling grids.

They're not all ex-MotoGP but they're all bloody good riders.Quote:

Oh, forgot to mention, Ant has been listed with MZ on the Moto2 reserves list. Hope they are prepared coz I reckon there's a good chance of opportunity for them to step up.
Ant to follow Yamaha Racing Team to the Australian Formula Extreme Championship?
He said he would not race ASBK!
Anthony West has found a job in 2010. The former 250cc, MotoGP and Supersport pilot will go into the long distance World Cup at the start. His team-mates will be the Senior TT winner on the Isle of Man, 2009, Steve Plater and Damian Cudlin. Plater will be on display this year in the British Superbike and on the Isle of Man, Cudlin will ride in the IDM. The team is headed by Michael Bartholemy, who will manage 2010 a Moto2 team. The oil company Elf, will take over the sponsorship of the Endurance team, is gone with Honda Fireblades. motorsport-magazin.com
Thanks for that Jack. I see it's on MCN too : http://www.motorcyclenews.com/MCN/sp...?&R=EPI-121680
World Endurance isn't really where I'd like to see him but if it's a paying job in what sounds like a good team (his teammates are certainly competitive) then I guess it's a good thing.
