Got bored Rule changes for 2024 season, https://www.worldsbk.com/en/news/20...chnical+changes+announced+for+2024+and+beyond. Worth noting, fuel flow rates will be imposed from 2025. Gregorio Lavilla’s take on the rule changes, https://www.worldsbk.com/en/news/20...hanges Everyone needs to believe they can win Still looks like they set out to reign in Alvaro and the Panigale V4 Andy
List of riders for 2024, https://www.worldsbk.com/en/riders. Not sure that Tito should still be competing but I guess Puchetti are short of money Andy
I'm waiting to find out which TV channel it will be on. At the moment I can still receive Eurosport on my Sky Sports package but I'm not going to add TNT sports.
Eurosport is already owned by Warner Brothers (Discovery+ and TNT). It was reported that a rebrand to align Eurosport with the TNT brand, is planned for the summer of this year (2024). I’d love to say the will not affect your access but to cover my arse, this should not affect your access through Sky. When BT Sport rebranded, our access through Sky was not affected. Andy
The fuel flow rules are absolutely designed to impact Ducati the most, more revs means more fuel, so in effect they are trying to reduce the temptation for the manufacturers to release these ‘R’ models with silly silly revs as road bikes.
No impact in 2024 though. Just data gathering from 2 bikes per manufacturer. Bit of wriggle room there surely?
na mate, just giving Ducati time to update the V4R to have a heavier crank and rev less so that it can be homologated for 2025 and stop Ducati totally spitting the dummy, if they limit their revs, the ridiculous lightweight crank for revs becomes pointless so they will look for drive, and you can’t change the crank weight in the rules
