I would have thought Pirelli would have had a look in.
Michelin is going to be the official tyre supplier after Bridgestone bows out

Apparently only Michelin tendered for it ... maybe they are just taking turns ... do they actually make any money out of it?
If I'm not mistaken the tires are supplied free of cost... so they're in it basically for the marketing and R&D side of things.

It doesn't seem to be perceived as worthwhile in terms of advertising and exposure by the majority of tyre manufacturers if only one tendered? Especially if the incumbent didn't tender!
So wonder what effect will this have on the bikes?
Dunlop's statement is interesting ... http://www.motogp.com/en/news/2014/D...oto2+and+Moto3
