Alot of speculation here and quite interesting, I don't think AM will get to ride the Repsol Honda. In fact I don't even think he'll make the switch at the end of the season. All these different scenarios depend on Lorenzo actually leaving Honda, that'll free up a seat and create other free seats. But it hasn't actually happened yet. The pundits say though.......if Lorenzo leaves for Ducati he is able to beat Marquez on that bike and is therefore a threat and the reason Honda should try and keep Lorenzo. There could be alot of movement but only if Jorge leaves Honda.
Doubt it! Much more talent coming up through the ranks now, I love Rossi but if he retires why take back another champion who probably won’t win a championship again like they did with Rossi

I can see that logic, but he didn't part company with Ducati under the best of circumstances and for all intents he isn’t liked there by the vast majority. That said once the deal with Honda was signed he did up his game (and results) with the Italians
From the bits I was hearing it sounded like JL will only he going to Pramac if Ducati big boss says so as Pramac boss like Jack, the team likes him, and he likes the team. Also JL may not have a release clause and so Honda may simply not let him go if they deem him to be a threat. Wonder what the odds are on JL being sent on Gardening Leave next season?
JL to honour his contract at Repsol and has reportedly spoken to HRC to clear up all the rumours and speculation. As I said, all speculation and I don't see AM entering motogp yet either....... Though it is possible.
