Álvaro Bautista will wear the colors of the Pull&Bear Aspar team for a second consecutive year.
Since the launch of the 2017 campaign, Álvaro Bautista has already scored four Top 7s in races, including a fourth place in Argentina, a fifth in Italy, a sixth in Germany and a seventh in Catalonia. The native of Talavera de la Reina, whose objective remains a Top 5 at the end of the season, has in any case proven that he has perfectly acclimatized to the Ducati Desmosedici GP16.
Jorge Martínez, Aspar Team General Manager : “It is excellent news to have been able to renew this contract with Álvaro Bautista. We believe in him and we are currently having a very solid season. We also have faith in Ducati, which gives us great support. By extending this contract, we will be able to progress even further. I hope we will be able to score many more points this year and next. »
Alvaro Bautista : “I am happy to stay one more season within the Pull&Bear Aspar family. This collaboration can help us grow, both the team and me. We are having a solid season. I also have a very good relationship with the team, I feel good on the Ducati and I have the support of the factory. I think we can continue to improve to get more good results. »
