Max may be no where!

HRC would not supply bikes to any team Max was involved in due to him slagging HRC off and apparently throwing the bike down in the pits and accusing them of sabotaging him, a little bit steep really although HRC clearly did favor Hayden and even he (Hayden) said the chassis Max and Sete ran wasn't good. The fall out from this is no Pons team as Camel were Max's personal sponsor and they told HRC where to shove their team.
Yamaha and Suzuki also vitoed any team from running Max.
Kawasaki were willing to run a third bike for him but Bridgestone were unable to supply tyres and unwilling to have Michellin tyres on identical bikes for obvious reasons.
There was talk of him joining the Roberts team but nothing came of it, for sure Kenny would have loved the Camel millions of $$$ and it would have allowed a 2nd bike, maybe more Honda sabotage?

So with all roads exploited Camel said goodbye to Max and threw their millions at Yamaha. Rossi had said he wouldn't ride a bike backed by a tabbaco company and Gauloises are seeking compensation after Yamaha broke the contract as Rossi wouldn't ride a bike with their name on it but is now riding in Camel colours.

So WSB then? The Alstar Corona team do want to run a bike for Max and have put a "TBA" on the entry list, Max is seeking equal equipment and support guarantees before signing.
