Moto2 entries are overflowing at this point in time, with 40 teams on the provisional provisional list (not a typo) that was supposed to contain onl7 37 brave entrants. The overbooking doesn’t seem to be an accident though, as while many teams jumped on-board with the pocketbook friendly GP series, the reality of funding a new racing effort in this economy has become apparent.

Moto2 teams are scrambling to make the bottom-line turn from red to black, and for many this means finding riders with personal sponsorships. There are only so many riders who can fit this bill, suggesting that this number of 40 could be dropping radically in the near future as teams realize that their ends won’t meet. Entry list after the jump.

I hope they end up with a full grid.

37 or 40 bikes all wanting the same bit of tarmac at T1

I had to have time to get over the death of 250s(R.I.P.) But now I'm pretty excited about this!!!!!!!!

While I don't think there will be so many bikes competing for the full season, I think there is a limit of 40 bikes on most tracks.
Anyway, it will be pretty interesting who has the best bike in the first races.
