          That would be a shame, then we have even less bikes on the track in 2009!
          On Eurosport aswell -

            That fat, bearded guy, with his arms crossed, that we always see in the Ferrari pit turns up every where it seems LOL

              The last I heard, Honda were reviewing their MotoGP programme too.

                Kawasaki are officially out now, shame.



                Interestingly, it points out in that article that there will only be 17 riders left on the grid, with points for the top 15 it'll be pretty easy to score this season!

                  Motorsport is taking a beating right now, but it is an excess I suppose.

                    it's a shame, but they still think someone is gonna take over the team and bikes,

                    I'm glad the World Superbikes is gonna be even more interesting this year then last year with 2 new manufacturers (Aprilia and BMW)
                    I hope that in 2010 or 2011 we will see some new teams entering the MotoGP again...

                      They could merge MotoGP and Superbikes but I don't know what the different between those races and bikes.

                        Moto GP bikes are custom built racing prototypes, so like F1.

                        Superbikes are modified road bikes, so more like touring cars.

                        So no, they couldn't be merged.

                          Buemi has been confirmed at Torro Rosso for 2009, be interesting to see who partners him.

                            I see Ferrari have released shots of their '09 car today, should be on track later in the day also.









                            Looks great from the side. Wings will take a bit of getting used to I guess, especially the rear. Nice to see slicks and no little winglets now that's for sure.

                              I'm pleasantly surprised by that.

                                The front wing is still a mess though. And its got a really pointy nose, the like of which we haven't seen, I would say. The mirrors are odd.
