Marboro have left they are now with Ducati and Biaggi will not go back to Yamaha not on the works bike anyway that looks likely to go to Melandri teaming up with Checa, that's a weak rider line up for my money. Andrew Pitt has been signed officially for weeks now and the second rider is as yet undecided. Eric Bostrom and Yanagawa will front the GP bike testing and development project alongside Pitt and the second rider with Eric in the picture for a future full time GP ride based on results in AMA. Eric will also contest several hand picked events in GP when his AMA commitments allow him to. The Kawasaki bosses have stressed there is unlimited cash for the GP project so no constraints there.
