Pramac’s sporting director Carlo Pernat threw a curveball the other evening during an Italian sports show when he said that Roger Lee Hayden would probably be replacing injured Hector Barbera, in this weekend’s Red Bull US GP race at Laguna Seca, instead the team decision has fallen on the recently unemployed Toni Elias to ride the Desmosedici GP12.

As speculated immediately after Toni Elias parted ways with Aspar’s Moto2 team after the Mugello Moto2 race, ‘Aspar Martinez’ has announced that CEV rider Jordi Torres will be replacing the former 2010 Moto2 World Champion for the rest of the season while continuing in the CEV championshipwith his JHK T-Shirt LaGlisse team

After leaving Effenbert Liberty team just before the past weekend’s Brno round because of the squad’s budget problems (the mechanics left because they weren’t being paid), Sylvain Guintoli set out immediately to find a new ride for the rest of the World Superbike season and it was rumored that he was already in talks with Pata Racing about joining their line-up.

Just a few hours ago, the French rider confirmed via Twitter that he’ll return to racing with Italian team (who has yet to formally announce the deal), “I will be back on the Ducati 1198 in Silverstone. Thanks to Team Pata & Ducati.”
