    Canepa and Kallio to Alice-Ducati. Announcement imminent.
    Elias to Gresini. Announcement imminent.
    GSE to Yamaha and stay in BSB. Confirmed.
    HM Plant to stay in BSB. Confirmed.

    Looks like Corser will stay at Yamaha-Italia

    There's not much left. But still lots of riders chasing places.

    Well I didn't see that coming. I wonder why they switched? Are Yamaha
    giving them a shed load of money? And where does this leave Ducati in
    BSB?

    Cheers,

    I can't imagine Ducati not having a top team in BSB. Which means the
    support probably switches to John Hackett. He's been tuning winning
    Ducatis for years. GSE have a bunch of 2009 WSB motors they ordered
    before all this so I guess they can always sell them on.

    The one who probably gets screwed in all this is Shane Byrne. Perhaps
    he'll go to Sterilgarda?

    Stranger still. Seems it was a last minute switch to Yamaha then.
    Why can't he just stay at GSE? Or is he hankering for WSB?

    Cheers,
