BSB » Hydrex Honda confirms Karl Harris split

About time. This is the best thing Sean Muir has ever done.

Shame but probably about right. Karl has just lost his way big time. He was always quick on Friday then got no where come the weekend. I do believe that if he'd held of Haslam at Croft a few years back and actually taken his first win he'd have gone on to big things. Just look what happened when Sykes, Crutchlow, Haslam and Camier all took their first wins, they all moved to the next level but Harris has gone backwards. He should go back to Supersport and rebuild his reputation before it's too late.

Interesting that they've made the change mid-season. Presumably their replacement rider will get a chance to prove himself for 2010? Tommy Hill perhaps?

They can surely do better than Karl though. Fourth in the standings completely flatters him, as so many riders have been out injured and 7 stars have left the series in 2 years. He's been way off the pace of someone who had never really shone until now.

Got to be Tommy Hill in that seat

What a surprise someone suggested Tommy Hill!
The team want a rider that can stay on a bike that's why they have got rid of Harris, not one that is as bad if not worse!!!

How about giving the ride to Michael Rutter? He has ridden for basically every other team on the grid.

It's Gotta Be worth Giving Cooperman a shot

tommy hill is class. Binza your stuck in the passed.

It would be funny if Rutter got it but i don't think thats going to happen!

Michael Laverty would kick some a$$ on that bike. Can't argue with Richard Cooper getting a shot either!

Good luck to Karl Harris. Supersport is calling.

Twin nut
Couldn't agree more with you in regards to that Croft race. I don't think anyone watching could believe Leon caught him up on that final lap and i was gutted for him as he'd had a storming race. He had a few near one's for the win that year but that was by far his clearest chance. These things can have a massive effect on an individual..both the negative and positives and a win there may well have changed the way his career has turned out.

Binza...in recent history Tommy has been crashed into (causing him 2 broken legs) not the one doing the crashing. I hope Tommy gets the ride as i like him and i rate him
