sancho 28 Posted March 27, 2013 Wouldn't make much out of a trip to New Zealand. Do BSI/IMG pay for the bikes to be flown out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oldace 1,678 Posted March 27, 2013 Wouldn't make much out of a trip to New Zealand. Do BSI/IMG pay for the bikes to be flown out Not for the European GPs, the prize money is all you get. I think an allowance has been paid for southern hemisphere GPs as regards the cost of travel and shipping Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waiheke1 4,295 Posted March 27, 2013 Not for the European GPs, the prize money is all you get. I think an allowance has been paid for southern hemisphere GPs as regards the cost of travel and shipping all expenses for theriders - flights, accommodation, shipping of equipment - are paid for for the nz gp . i presume they still have to pay for their support team but not certain.

Humphrey Appleby 13,970 Posted March 27, 2013 NO idea what the terms of his contract with BSI/IMG are I think the accommodation is the responsibility of the local organiser, is it not? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waiheke1 4,295 Posted March 28, 2013 in a Chris holder interview i read (don't know if it was on the net or in the paper) he was saying they can't believe that they travel all this way and don't have to pay a thing, unlike the gps in Europe. he didn't specify what they have to cover themselves for the other gps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PHILIPRISING 7,298 Posted March 28, 2013 I think the accommodation is the responsibility of the local organiser, is it not? AS I wrote, not familiar with the terms of the contract and who pays what but would guess that Western Springs Promotions would at least negotiate a deal with the Crowne Plaza although at this time of the year, especially with cricket's Barmy Army in town, hotels aren't exactly desperate for trade.

The Know 221 Posted April 8, 2013 Not for the European GPs, the prize money is all you get. I think an allowance has been paid for southern hemisphere GPs as regards the cost of travel and shipping That would be because no one would go if they had to pay it all themselves.
