So there's a chance of Haslam and Brookes at Tyco as team mates?

That would be a strong team as long as the bike is competitive!
No. Brookes wants to be with halsall. Pushing for Yamaha support, the stumbling block being Yamaha are sort of stuck supporting the useless THM team as they bought the SMR bikes and loaned them to THM for 2 seasons.

I thought they were going to give Hutchy a proper shot at BSB? I'd heard that was part of the deal.

Ok thanks,

SO if Halsall don't get the factory support Tyco is the fall back? On what machinery?

We've now lost two of the top three teams from BSB in the past two seasons, with only Honda looking like they could mount a serious challenge to PBM. Is there a chance that BSB is about to start to fall away? One dominant team / rider is likely to make it far less of a spectacle next year.

Not exactly true!

Hawk build & maintain there engines but they originate from alpha racing, as do all the others. theres nothing such as a factory bmw engine in bsb, anyone can phone alpha and order them. my good mate crowey ran the same spec motor as them at tt16, 228bhp, warranted (sort of) for 2500km
Fair.

Make that three. Further news to break this week.

It's all a farce. MSH has done right by bsb and anyone that understands how the series actually works would rightly also walk away given the st he's had.

Tommy hills team also in jeopardy, as SH has had his mitts into epayme and having them move teams.

Yes to haslam moving to bournemouth kwak. Risky move though. Guinters to hawk Suzuki, Brooke's likely now to tyco, but things are so fluid it's unreal. All hinges on haslam putting pen to paper (contrary to popular belief, he hasn't actually got a contract with kwak, they just want him to stay as lead rider) and then guigliano, Brookes & guinters signing.

Can you expand a bit more n what exactly has created the situation with MSH ?

And by SH do you mean Higgs?

Do you mean three of the top three teams, or just another team that's going?
