The Husqvarna, with which the Max Racing Team will participate in the Moto3 World Championship in 2020 with Romano Fenati and Alonso López, was presented at EICMA.

EICMA is an opportunity to attend various presentations. One of them represents a big return to the lower category, namely Husqvarna , which will only provide one Moto3 World Championship team. Yesterday, among the many models present, the two motorcycles supplied to the Max Racing Team were presented, a structure led by Max Biaggi and Peter Öttl, who lifted the veil in front of the public. The two drivers, previously announced, are Romano Fenati et Alonso lopez , who will race in 2020 on the new FR 250 GP.

“We are excited to bring the Husqvarna Motorcycles brand back to road racing and the Moto3 World Championship,” said declared Pete Beirer, sports director KTM and Husqvarna. “ It is an excellent platform for training new talents. With the expert combination of Max Biaggi and Peter Öttl leading the team, as well as drivers Fenati and López, both capable of challenging for victory, we can't wait to get started next season. The Max Racing Team can do well with the Husqvarna FR 250 GP. »

Great satisfaction also from Max Biaggi , owner of the Max Racing team, who welcomed this new challenge with joy. “I am very pleased that Husqvarna Motorcycles has chosen to support our team in its international return to road racing. Husqvarna's return to Moto3 is a very special and unique moment, I'm proud to be involved. Everyone on the team is looking forward to 2020. We believe we can achieve great results with the support of Husqvarna Motorcycles. Our two drivers are very motivated. With Romano Fenati and Alonso López we have an experienced driver and a young one, but both are capable of achieving great results. We will give our boys everything possible so that they can show their true potential. »

Peter Öttl , manager of the Max Racing Team, is also proud. “After my racing career, I worked for Husqvarna in their off-road racing department. Opening a new chapter with this brand is special. We have had a close relationship with the company for 10 years and this project is another sign of trust, but also responsibility. With the arrival of Romano Fenati and Alonso López, we have two promising riders for the Husqvarna FR 250 GP. Fenati is one of the most successful Moto3 riders of recent years, and has already demonstrated this with 11 victories . We think he has the potential to immediately challenge for the podium. Alonso López is only 17 years old, but has two years of experience in the World Championship. In the last few races he has had excellent performances and we are confident that he will continue to improve. I am more than satisfied with our pair of drivers. We are looking forward to a very positive 2020. »
