There have been rumors for weeks that Suzuki will race with Tommy Hayden and Blake Young in 2009. Where does that leave six-time AMA champion Mat Mladin? Rumors suggest that Suzuki is considering paying Mladin not to race or buying out his existing contract.

Mladin, reached by e-mail over the weekend, and asked if rumors of Suzuki paying him not to ride or buying him out of his contract were true, replied. "No comment".

Typical the yanks don't like an Australian kicking there butt year in year out & blame that for there series being so unpopular. It's the same bullshit politics that saw Mat striped of race wins with the trumped up crank issue yet they didn't strip apart his team mates bike who just happened to be a yank. In the end it doesn't matter much as the AMA is probably the worst series form a spectators point of view, maybe they should put them all on scooters so the racing is closer but Mat would still flog them.

Maybe he will retire :(, he's been outspoken about WSBK in the past so i don't think he would go there , what if any are his other options ?.

Here's a great idea, he could start up a bike shop, maybe in Narellan :D

Nahh he's done Aus proud, I lost all respect for AMA with the crank issue, hope he gets a ride on something he enjoys, he's a great rider.
