I cannot believe that Yamaha have axed Andrew Pitt after the results he's had and currently lying 4th in the championship! Unbelievable! But then they were going to get rid of him last year too and I was suprised then.

And Assen winner Chris Walker has been axed too!!!! Leading Kawasaki and they've dumped him.

WTF is going on!!!

UK industry needs to get behind riders if they're going to be successful I think. For some reason Aussie's have always seemed to get by without it, I don't know why.

Was Corser and Haga in the same Red-Bull team when in 500's???
I so want Foogy's team to clinch a big money sponsor, some good riders are still available, promise of full factory dukes, a slick team fronted by Jack Valentine. What more do the potential sponsors want before they sign the ef'in cheque??

Corser's GP effort:

Moving with his team into 500cc Grands Prix, Corser was paired with Luca Cadalora on the YZR500. Unfortunately, there were problems with sponsorship and contracts, not helped when the team collapsed and was rescued by Red Bull and WCM. In the seven races Troy took part in, he got points in four, with twelfth his best finish. This meant eleven points and 23rd in the championship
