Italian Venues swap dates, new location for British GP | | Mantova tracksite |
Only four weeks ahead of the first MX GP of the year at Bulgaria changes are still coming up. The second event will be at Mantova instead of Fermo. Official reason is that there is not enough time to prepare the Fermo track after a cold and long winter. Belgium news say that Kevin Strijbos and former World Champion Georges Jobe have parted ways. Jobe wanted to start a new team with money from Dubai. There are no news from Strijbos' team mate Anthony Bossiere if will stay with Jobe or not. Strijbos hasn't received payment the last two months and decided to look for a new team. Word is that he might sign with another KTM team.
