[Ridley]

Thanks for the article @budman

 

[budman]

Changes are coming. What they are?? TBD.

Good article on how the Manufacturers are starting to face up Liberty Group and how the Riders need too.

MotoGP's manufacturers are revolting, so why aren't the riders?

MotoGP's manufacturers are currently at war with Liberty Media, the championship's new owners, so now is the time for the riders to unite and fight for their rights

STORY


It is getting closer to crunch time for Marc. With the Aprilia's kicking ass it is a different kind of crunchy this year.

Here is a good one from my man Matt O. Time for the riders to man the fuck up??

Dangerous hairpins and potential street races has Matt thinking them boys better get on this shit!

Rumor has it Diggia to factory KTM besides Alex Marquez...leaving a possible 2027 seat for Nicolò Bulega at Ducati/VR 46?

 

[budman]

Digi is solid.

Marc had successful surgery. MotoGP stars get 4 surgeons. .

 

[Lonster]

4 GOOD surgeons that don't F around. Same day multi surgery.
I'm jealous.

 

[budman]

It is good to be a star athlete.

He earned it.

 

[budman]

This bums me out.

 

[SFMCjohn]

that is bad news for Trackhouse fans, losing Mr Brivio to Honda.

 

[Lonster]

that is bad news for Trackhouse fans, losing Mr Brivio to Honda.

Maybe.
He's got a good track record of building a great program, and then handing it off to continue to succeed with the new management.
Just look at what he did at Yamaha for Rossi, and then again with Suzuki and the championship.
I think that Aprilia will continue to flourish.
If he keeps doing what he does, then Honda will become competitive again, and maybe we'll have ALL the manufacturers with competitive bikes,
making for a very close and more exciting racing season.

 

[SFMCjohn]

well, apparently Honda likes his track record of (re)building great programs.

Aprilia is maybe the best bike on the grid, currently. will be a ton of fun to see if Mr Brivio and Honda can respond. never bet against Honda, is my motto.

 

[budman]

It is interesting that it is a "consultant" position. Maybe that gets out of the intense travel and time needed to run a team and that's what he wants.

For sure his success speaks volumes on his ability to make shit happen!
