Not 2014 as everyone thought mainly down to development issues, shame as we need another factory bike out there although how competitive it would be I'm not sure, surely not up with the Honda and yams that is for sure! Crutchlow was being tipped for this ride too as he wants and deservedly so a factory ride next year, surely mr Yamaha should put a third factory bike on the grid to keep his services for another year or face losing him, time will tell hey!
I guess I would be more interested in who will be entertaining folks in motogp if it wasn't for the fact that I won't be watching it due to bt getting television rights for it! but never know bt sport might be down the tubes by then so BBC and Eurosport get the rights back at discounted prices! Also has the rules not changed so yam couldn't setup a new outfit for crutchlow as the rules only allow each manufacturer to have two factory rides and two satalites rides?
