So Suzuki has an option to extend Mir for 2 more years? Why would anyone sign that contract unless he can negotiate a huge pay hike? The main reason MV moved to Yamaha was likely because of the $$$

Perhaps the contract has some pay changes scheduled in, based on a) performance in the first 2 years b) parts and labor c) performance compared to teammate?

Maybe a first refusal clause at the 2-year mark?

Some of the managers are very clever, it would be interesting to get some inside info.
They do seem to play it very close to the vest.
Although, they have guys like Herve to negotiate with, and he's no pushover.

Apparently Petrux's contract is only for 1 year... upon HIS request. Likely he got low balled and wants to renegotiate next year. I would be concerned with Miller sitting in the wings.

He did say if he got the ride it would only be because it would be cheaper than Lorenzo.

We'll see if the electronic restrictions tighten up the comp even more and it's impact on tyre wear.
Curious what fairings they settle on for the year. Lorenzo will probably go for the Fokker triplane style to load the front?
