Yates didn't exactly leave. More like, wasn't invited back.

Re: Tommy H. to Yosh

damn....I must say I am a tad sad and disappointed that ol Tommy Gun is leaving Kawi and going to Yosh Suzuki....excellent career move for him, but I think this will only make the Yosh team even more dominant now....they'll have argubably 3 of the top 5 riders in the paddock....Tom is a great rider and on a competitive bike, it's gonna be fun to see him dice it up with Mat and Ben, but who's gonna take his seat a Kawi? hopefully, someone that can ride the stew outta the bike and be competitive...I guess it's a good thing Yamaha is coming back next year....

Rumour has it that DiSalvo has SuperBike in his contact w/ Yam. So it looks like Hacking will the SB only if Yam runs a total of 3.

Re: Tommy H. to Yosh

E.Boz and DiSalvo had SB written into their contracts. Now that Hacking is up for renewal he finds that he is SOL with Yamaha on a SB unless they decide to run three of them. He would rather not be in that situation, and I'd bet Yamaha would rather not run three bikes their first year in.
He would be better off going to a different factory and getting full support. It sucks for him, and will for Yamaha to lose two number ones, but the most likely scenario sees Hacker leaving Yamaha.
