Andrea Iannone

[pritch]

I seem to recall that Rossi was the man behind Iannone's team. (And look at all that yellow...) The site lists one Alessio Salucci as PR man. Mr Salucci may be better known to some of you as "Uccio". http://www.speedmasterteam.com/en/team

There wouldn't seem to be many seats available in Moto GP next year and unless something changes (other than the engine size and any claiming rules teams?) there'll be two less Honda factory bikes with both Dovizioso and Simoncelli probably reverting to customer bikes.

Bradl could get Colin Edwards' place but Marquez is the standout to get the next available Honda factory ride, not just because he's good, but because he's Spanish. Repsol is a Spanish company and they have a preference for Spanish riders. Dorna is also a Spanish Company so they won't complain.

Marques for sure will be a Motogp talent...Iannone ain't doing so well on suter chassis...that was built for Marques....infact noone else is doing very flash on suter chassis except for Marques, so meh....can read into that I suppose.

everyone is doing better than Anthony west on MZ chassis...and everyone knows he's a shit load faster than he's running!!

Suter are having very mixed results this year probably as a result of spreading themselves a little thinly. Not only do they need to look after a brace of Moto 2 riders but the also have developement of the CRT chassis and moto 3 bike, a hell of a big ask for what is a moderately sized operation.

I can't disagree with that......

Is it factory bike or factory team? Can't recall what that rule says, but an interesting point.
Does that mean that Marquez will have some wildcard or invited MotoGP rides this year or next if/when he stays in Moto2 for a second year to consolidate skills and experience.
