During this weekend in Brno, Tom Luthi will play its future in Grand Prix more behind the scenes than on the track. It is in fact certain that his current team Marc VDS will no longer be part of the elite landscape, while continuing in Moto2. A category that he should return to next year.

According to the German media motorsport-magazin.com, the future of the Swiss rider will be in Moto2 or it will not be. In any case, he does not want the role of testing ground: “ I want to run. I have an opportunity in Moto2 and I want to win there. This weekend in the Czech Republic should clarify things a lot ».

One thing is already certain, the former 125 World champion no longer has the means to stay in MotoGP. A question of budget, because the results do not follow, it is with the check that this position is acquired. However, there is one at stake, at Avintia, for a Ducati: “ Xavier Simeon told me bluntly: he will be replaced. But his successor will have to bring in a lot of money. And we're talking about amounts that aren't even possible for me ". But undoubtedly possible for Karel Abraham.

Let's come back to the current teammate of Morbidely who should be on a Yamaha Petronas alongside fabio quartararo... " If I return to Moto2, it will be with a high-level team, capable of playing up front. It's imperative. I have two options. One is with Marc VDS as Alex Marquez's teammate in place of Joan Mir ". And the other ? We don't know, but KTMs are still up for grabs...
