Livio Suppo, Racing Consultant

Livio Suppo, the big comeback? When leaving Suzuki, Davide Brivio said he seized a chance to go to Formula 1. An opportunity taken which opens the field of opportunities for others. Thus, the place left within a team which won the world title with Joan Mir gives rise to spontaneous applications. Like Livio Suppo who would like to see himself back in the spotlight in MotoGP…

Davide Brivio therefore decided to add a line to his CV and two wheels to his duties in a paddock by leaving Suzuki in full glory. A position that arouses envy like a Livio Suppo, Racing Consultant who presents himself spontaneously at the Hamamatsu factory through intermediary declarations. The former of Ducati and Honda declared thus: “ if Suzuki calls me, I will listen and decide ».

Public chat crash.net, the Italian thus reveals himself in case he receives a call from Suzuki : " I should think about it. MotoGP has been my life for many years and I miss it sometimes ". I have to say that Livio Suppo, Racing Consultant has experience of the position left vacant by Davide Brivio. He won the 2007 title with Casey Stoner for a factory Ducati which he left in 2010. In the ranks of Honda, he won in 2011, again thanks to the Australian.

Replacing Brivio is not easy for Suzuki

He then celebrated four more MotoGP titles with Marc Marquez in 2013, 2014, 2016 and 2017. Before deciding to definitively leave the premier category paddock, leaving his place to Alberto puig. Livio Suppo, 56, is perhaps the most experienced and most awarded figure currently on the managerial market.

Exactly, Suzuki is short of staff to support this type of comparison, while the back-to-school tests will take place in a little over a month in Malaysia in Sepang. However, in 2021, Suzuki wants to continue the momentum started in 2020. As the Hamamatsu firm is not involved in WSBK, it does not currently have the possible resources in its ranks to respond to the emergency. But the decision can also be to dilute the functions held by Davide Brivio within all the staff already present. The verdict should not take long. And Livio Suppo, since then, has been monitoring his phone...

Livio Suppo could see himself returning to MotoGP in place of Brivio...
