It's not just in MotoGP where official presentations are starting to take place. Moto2, too, offers itself the opportunity to shine the spotlight and the latest spotlight has been placed on the Italtrans team. A team which rejuvenated its troops by giving Pasini his leave to better open its doors to bastianini. The latter arrives in the category without having fulfilled his title objectives in Moto3. He will be able to rely on Locatelli's experience. But he also decided to take as a reference a certain bagnaia.
And when we know to what extent the VR46 Academy student has progressed in recent years, we cannot blame him. On his new adventure, the Italian declares: “ 2019 will be my first year in Moto2 and I am very happy with the choice to take it on with Italtrans Racing Team. The team immediately gave me confidence and I'm already learning a lot ».
« The first races will be difficult and it will be important to listen to the team's advice and learn from other drivers. Next to me will be Locatelli: it will be his third year with Italtrans and I am sure he will help me greatly. The goal is to stay ahead and fight for the results that matter. I can't wait to start this new adventure! ».
The objective will already be to dominate the rookie class. Which won't be easy. The competition is indeed called Bezzecchi, By Giannantonio or George Martin. " In recent months, I have followed Bagnaia a lot,” explains Bastianini on GPOne. “That will be my reference point. In 2018, I particularly observed it. He has incredible consistency as well as a lot of determination ". He will ride on a Kalex Triumph.
