Confirms Nicky on the Aspar Ape, likely teammate is Eugene Laverty.

Espargaro on the NGM Forward M1, likely teammate Colin.

interesting bits with Gigi and Aspar/AmericanHonda/HRC

I'm sure HRC would love to see Nicky on the customer bike, just for US marketing reasons

CycleNews Hayden interview:

Q: Are you glad you're not his (Marquez's) teammate?

A: I'd probably take my chances to be on that bike (Repsol Honda) right now.

Pure gold.

the question I would have about the Gigi/Ducati thing, is if or how long would it take for Gigi to get his program instituted in his way....
