What a f*ckedtacular idea!!

what's gonna happen IMO... is WSBK is gonna get some new sattalite teams with SHITLOADS of money, and sponsors. imagine if gresini honda switched to WSBK?

I wonder what the difference is in over head between WSBK and MotoGP... Faster said it was like 15million a year just to run a team... then add in rider contracts... I can't see WSBK costing 15 million a year to run a team...

I also think the AMA adopting WSBK rules is a good idea, and one of the problems is that Suzuki who has dominated with the old AMA rules, is just bummed that they're going to get some competition now, and they don't like it.

I don't know wtf honda is thinking in their motorsport efforts.
First they let Pedrosa and his management take almost complete control of the decision making process from ground up even though he hasn't won a championship AFTER chasing away Rossi with shitty treatment, then they spend more in F1 than anyone else over a short period of time expecting to take over the sport from teams entrenched for almost 50+ years, then they drop their F1 effort leaving drivers, suppliers, the entire team fucked right before a huge season. Now they're pulling this crap.

Seriously Honda, wake the fuck up.
