Redding Hints At 2024 Announcement

Discussion in 'Racing & Bike Sport' started by bigjimmyb, Jul 13, 2023.

  1. If Scott gets a ride back on a Ducati there is no doubt he could be consistently pushing more with the top 10 guys. It would probably also highlight the issues with BMW. Saying that BMW are moving to the same Electronics package as the rest of the field (Finally) so that will be interesting to see what impact that has.
     
  2. I think it will be with MarcVDS. He has an amazing relationship with them
     
  3. That’s my guess too. Andy
     
  4. Agreed. Let’s see what gets said on Sunday.
     
  5. Would genuinely love to see him on a mvds v4s alongside the sl22 even if it’s just to get some honest real life comparisons instead of years old internet opinion validated. :)
     
  6. That livery is going to look immense btw and a potential 899 wrap incoming.

  7. I think the BMW (bosch) electronics company bought up Motec or somehting like that
     
  8. September last year. Andy

  9. They have announced a V4R team with Lowes from M2 team joining…two man team with Redding?! Toprak will be kicking himself….
     
  10. he won’t because it’s not a factory team so won’t be able to meet his wage demands
     
  11. If he wants to win he will. He will perform miracles to win on that bmw
     
  12. M-VDS sounds plausible
     
  13. They just said on commentary 99% not going to Benovo BMW… and then said “will he go to motoamerica”

    surely he’s not even considering that?
     

  14. Who knows, the money may be a factor..

    He can only have gone to bmw for the money let’s face it.
     
  15. I think that’s the only reason anyone races in the states, as there is also no depth of field. 10th place in a race is often well over a minute behind and the times from top to bottom of the grid are often 7 or more seconds difference.

    baubier went back there after basically riding for free in moto2 for 3 years trying to make it, clearly he needed to top up his pension rather than come to Uk or WSBK, can’t blame him I suppose

  16. When I was a young lad trying to make my way in the racing world (karts/cars), a lot of my friends/competitors went off to America to build their careers, win a championship etc.

    There’s so much more opportunity over there.
     
  17. Let’s face it Moto America is like Thudersport GB here ;)
     
  18. I think that was a deliberate throw away comment and Hanes didn’t have anything better to fill the commentary. Andy
     
  19. Any announcements? It is Saturday….
