Not so good news, or MCN strikes again...



If you can believe what's said these day's it may not be a good omen for
more participation in GP. Oh well...

Tor: In a recent interview with MCN you mentioned that 2007 would be the
year of the 800cc. As far as I understand, this involves two new models
based on the F800 and an 800cc MotoGP prototype. Am I correct in saying this
and can you elaborate please?

Dr. Diess: Yes, two more F 800 models are planned. There will definitely be
no MotoGP prototype - that is MCN speculation without any basis in fact.

Tor: Is there an 800cc MotoGP prototype under development and where do you
want BMW Motorrad to go with it? If there is such a MotoGP prototype, when
will BMW race it? What is the schedule of the project, what sort of engine
do you believe in and will we see ground braking BMW technologies in use on
this prototype?

Dr. Diess: As mentioned before, BMW Motorrad is not developing any MotoGP
prototypes.
