    Sam Lowes has won the WSS World championship - so proud of him and he is off to Moto 2 .
    Dont think its announced yet but Alex lowes - currently battling BSB championship with Shakey (Sams identical twin, for those who dont know) well not announced yet but Alex is off to MotoGp and should be riding in the last 3 GP's this year if the plans are sorted .
    Meanwhile Staurt Easton is leaving Martrain and going back with Birdy and Rapid Solicitors, so team mate of Shakeys ... for 2014 . Oh and Alastair Seeley is leaving gearlink but forgottn who he said he riding for in 2014 .. (it will come back to me *hopes*)
     
    lost, alexs, NAPA121 and 4 others like this.

    sam lowes in moto 2 is a good ride for that young lad. he has done so well this season to hold off Sofuoglu. im kinda hoping that Tom Sykes can win the WSB, he has one hand on the trophy already. i think marquez is gonna be crowned Motogp and Scott Redding will win the Moto 2 crown this year. not sure how to call BSB yet if Alex wins it will be awesome but if he goes to Motogp he wont be around to defend his title next year

    ive got bt already. im gutted that they are exclusively showing MotoGp. i hope that now that Dorna have the rights to WSB they dont do the same thing. Eurosports is the home of motorcyling and thats where it should stay.

    Why is he not racing. I would of thought he was too young to be a team boss and hasn't he only won once?

    A serious lack of Hondas. It's a shame as they won last year. I would of thought that BSB as a good testing ground for the other championships. Can't wait to see what Tommy Bridewell will do with a full season on top of that Yamaha. Josh Brooke's will be out to prove a few things too. Roll on 18th April
