foreverblue 6,096 Posted February 6, 2020 (edited) I would imagine the reason for the delays is to try to get the costs down so the riders have to accept the deal if they want to ride whatever that deal is. Edited February 6, 2020 by foreverblue Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm sure i remember in the 90s my team literally going down to press and practise day before they confirmed anything a few times. One year it was after..

Trees 2,814 Posted February 7, 2020 Surely the promotion would be announcing the rest of the team if everything was sorted, I'd imagine they are pulling their hair out more than the fans.
