Für alle, die Interesse am Rallye-Sport haben:
Da ich gerade dabei bin, Neuigkeiten aus der Rallye-Szene zu verbreiten (Trennung von BMW und Speedbrain), wollte ich auch dies nicht vorenthalten:
von Cyril Despres' HP:
"After 12 years and 10 Dakar podiums, 5 of which were victories, Cyril Despres and KTM have jointly agreed to go their separate ways, leaving Cyril free to explore new challenges and new horizons.
Cyril Despres
“I have spent a large part of my career to date with KTM, so as you can imagine it wasn’t a decision that was taken lightly. They were great years, very fruitful, both professionally and personally, and I owe much to everyone at KTM , especially the ‘boss’ Stefan Pierer, whose enthusiasm for the sport of rally-raid matches my own. I would also like to say a big ‘thank you’ to Heinz Kinigadner and Head of Motorsport Pit Beirer and everyone in the rally department. When I arrived it was run by the much missed Hans Trunkenpolz, who taught me how to develop a rally bike, and whose work is now being very ably continued by Stefan Huber. Finally, I say a very fond farewell to my factory mechanic throughout all that time, Roland Bruckner, and my support rider during the last four Dakars, Ruben Faria, who I wish all the best for the future.
Although I say goodbye to all these people, I am sure I will be seeing many of them again very soon, as, with the continued support of my long-time partner Redbull, I will most definitely be staying in the sport. It is a little too early to give any more details, suffice to say I am extremely motivated by the new challenge I am about to embark on and look forward to giving you further details in the very near future.”
All the best
Cyril"
So trennen sich noch 5-maligem Dakar-Erfolg des Franzosen die Wege von Ihm und KTM.
Hier gibt es die unterschiedlichsten Gerüchte, von Wechsel zu Honda, Kawa oder Yamaha bishin zum Wechsel auf 4 Räder....

ein neues Team auf zwei Rädern. Man kann nur hoffen, dass Yamaha endlich mal aus seinem Dornröschenschlaf erwacht, die XT 660 und die XTZ 1200 gehören dringend überarbeitet und auf den Stand der Technik gebracht....und zwischen WR 250 und XT 660 darf auch gerne noch eine Alltags-450er passen.
