More competitive teams/riders on the grid would be a good thing.

Right on  Thumbsup

This is a great move by Norton getting back into racing.  Maybe they could get Charley and Ewan to ride a pair   Lol

Look at what happend with Hizzy and the Isle of Man in 92.

I don't see it happening if as reported Dorna are asking for a five year commitment before they will allow Norton to compete. Five years is a long time in Moto GP, and a huge commitment for any manufacturer.
