hey!
I'm in Cairo, just finished the pharaoh's rally and n italian just told me that there was apparemtly a huge fallout betwrn Repsol and Ktm about Dakar and that both repsol and telegonica are pulling their support off Ktm.
That means only 3 official contracted riders by Ktm will be in their truck in plain oranage Ktm colors: marc coma, despres and water carrier alain duclos.

It leaves villadoms and Chaleco lopez in the unknown.

CASTEU gets factory bike and parts to handle with his own team.

Oei ...  wie weet meer??

Dit verhaal klopt inderdaad. Repsol kan/wil de sponsorgelden niet opbrengen, en dus moet het mes erin....

Da's jammer, vooral vanwege de kleuren ...

Inderdaad , ook Frans Verhoeven gaat gebruik maken van een factory bike and parts .
Casteu en Verhoeven rijden Dakar 2009 in het VECTRA TEAM.
