Sounds good to me. I'm glad it isn't Dunlop, as they already have Moto2 and 3. Now Michelin can get some top development again. It would be nice to see it open again, but I guess that is ultimately more expensive for the industry as a whole.

I don't think we will notice a difference to be honest.

I was hoping for Dunlop, but I doubt it'll make a huge difference.
