The Moto GP Team owner Fausto GRESINI , with the support of HONDA Italy will be officially involved in the World Superbike next season with two riders.
One of these riders will be the well-known Frankie CHILI who has decided to quit his actual team PSG who had agreed to work next season with KAWASAKI Italy.
Fausto GRESINI will receive the bikes / spare parts directly from the italian headquarter and the financially part will be supported by one of his actual MOTO GP sponsor.
BRIGAGLIA , ex-gp rider and actually the head-mecchanic of Frankie will managed the technical part in addition to a new staff which will be chosen in the next weeks.
Fausto GRESINI had a meeting last week with HONDA in ROME in order to discuss the matter of the second rider who will be Colin Edwards, ex-Superbike World Champion.
More news about this matter in two weeks.
From Fausto Gresini (Date de la news: 09 septembre 04
En voilà une sacrée surprise pour le SuperBike, l'arrivée d'un team très important !
Pour ceux qui sont anglophobes, il est noté que Fausto Gresini (le patron du team MotoGP qui engage Gibernau et Edwards cette saison) va monter l'an prochain un autre team, mais cette fois en World SuperBike avec comme pilotes Frankie Chili et ... Colin Edwards.
Exit donc "Texas Tornado" Edwards du MotoGP.
Reste à savoir maintenant qui prendra sa place au sein du team MotoGP.
A+
