In what has been a difficult rookie season in Moto2, Skinner was set to undergo a second season alongside Joe Roberts, who had been signe꧃d to replace fellow American Sean Dylan Kelly. 

Like Skinner, Kelly was dropped from the te💧am, however🅰, his dismal came mid-season and has been replaced by Marcos Ramirez.

The Spꦦaniard claimed a podium last time out at Sepang, and with his form trendi♔ng in the right direction, plus Skinner having scored just two points, the American Racing Team decided to axe Skinner in a surprise move. 

Remaining in Moto2

The 2024 Moto2 grid is quickly filling up w⛦ith very few seats, especially competitive seats lef🥃t available. 

One seat that is up for grabs is the Speed Up Racing Boscoscuro ride alongside Fermin Aldeguer, although the Spaniardꦺ looks set for a promotion to MotoGP which could give Skinner an even better chance of staying in the class.

There are also seats to be⛦ had at Forward Racing, Fantic Racing and the Yamaha VR46 Master Camp team alongside Ayumu Sasaki. 

British Superbike

If Skinner can’t remain part of♈ the Moto2 line-up, then returning to BSB could be his best option.

It would likely signify an end to his dream of becoming a star in the Grand Pri🥀x paddock, however, it would offer him the ch🔥ance to return to a series he knows and be competitive.
