Austrian bikes dominate GP start list

Of the 63 official entries in the just-released 2017 MXGP start list for the Qatar opener, the Austrian KTM and Husky factory lead the way with 28 machines on the list – just over 44% of the field. That’s 16 KTMs – five in MXGP and 11 in MX2. And Husky have 12 with five in MXGP and seven in MX2.

Of the rest, Yamaha and Kawasaki tie on 10 each. Yamaha has six MXGP riders – the most of any single manufacturer – plus four MX2 while Kawasaki has four MXGP and six in MX2. Honda and Suzuki then have seven each, with Honda four in MXGP and three in MX2, with those numbers reversed in Kawasakis case. And TM has a single MX2 entrant for when the series kicks off in Qatar on February 25.

In terms of riders, Britain has four riders for Qatar in both MXGP and MX2 classes – Shaun Simpson, Jake Nicholls, Max Anstie, Tommy Searle on 450s and James Dunn, Conrad Mewse, Adam Sterry and Ben Watson in MX2. Other riders will do European-based GPs only. Photo JP Acevedo/ KTM Images
