Yes, you have to feel sorry for Chantra. It looks like Yamaha are making some progress in single lap times but their race pace still isn't great.Originally Posted by F5 Dave

I think it is implying that KTM can currently only afford to build half a bike and pay half a rider.new motogp logo, what sayest thou? I dont mind it, which probably isnt a good thing for the logo

haha, that's excellent.. who is the rider though? Binder? He possibly only needs half a bike

KTM Press Release - Breaking News!
Due to recent cost constraints, we here at KTM have now sourced our 2025 Motogp Bike development to our Indian Branch. To save costs on hiring race tracks, a street legal version of the 2025 RC16 has been built and is currently undergoing extensive testing.
KTM riders Brad Binder and Pedro Acosta have been released and we wish them the very best in their future endeavors. The new RC16 KTM bikes will now be ridden by autonomous riding AI bots. Binderbot 1.3 and Pedrobot 1.0 are under full development and progressing nicely. We expect KTM to be a real force to be reckoned with in the 2025 championship.

he was disapointed. All the new aero will only be seen at Sepang,and The japanese didnt show much because they can test with the their factory riders at their own tests
Forum whore
Yeah, it was mentioned on a few other podcasts, but the big talking point was Fabio top 2..

There are news items to the effect that KTM are in a dire financial situation. MotoGP is not really appropriate for a company with a cash problem. Here's hoping...

Yeah they've announced they are going into self-administration.

If next season's sponsorship money is there and enough bikes and spares available they could still run.
MotoGP is now more an advertising site for sponsors.
But I'm reminded of MV in the 60's when they had trouble.
Hailwood rode "privat" MV's serviced I think away from the factory

Pretty sure they havent said they will stop MotoGp - at least this year. They probably an expensive contract to get out of.

Yeah they have said the MotoGP team remains as it is, but Suzuki managed to get out of their contract. Speaking of which, there are rumours that Suzuki are looking to return to racing soon. Fingers crossed.
Forum whore
Yeah, there needs to be at least one inline 4 lol
I wish someone else would give it a go, kawasaki? I wonder how Triumph would go? Just something to break up the usual suspects

Nah Triumph don't have VW money behind them and I want to be able to get parts for my bike in the future.
Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.
