MV Agusta Forward Racing have officially unveiled their livery for the 2020 Moto2™ World Champion campaign. Italian duo Stefano Manzi and Simone Corsi will be aiming to build on the brand’s solid opening Moto2™ season as they gear up for the Official Jerez Test on 19-21 February.
Giovanni Cuzari – Forward Racing CEO: “I’m happy with the work done last season. The project, despite being young, has shown our validity, as proven by the speed record in Australia and the excellent results in the standings. The collaboration with MV Agusta has been vital and will continue to be even more extensive this year. I want to thank the team and our sponsor, who will make everything possible in this new season.”
Stefano Manzi: “As an Italian rider I’m very honoured to be part of this important project. I’m happy to continue the work and I hope I am able to improve even more, especially after the beautiful end to last season. This year my teammate will be Simone Corsi, a well experienced rider and from whom I can certainly learn a lot. I can’t wait to get back on my F2 and give, as always, my best to achieve our objectives.”
Simone Corsi: “I’m very happy to race with a marque like MV Agusta, with their rich history. I’ve always liked the MV Agusta motorbikes, like the F4 - it’s a real gem. I wasn’t born but Agostini with MV made the history of motorcycle racing, so riding for this brand is an honour and extra motivation for both me and the team to bring MV Agusta back to the top of the standings. Since last year the team has done a great job and in the last few races, Manzi was always in the top positions. During the first test in November at Jerez I immediately had a good feeling with the F2. Now we have all the winter tests to do what we can to develop the bike and arrive ready for the first race in Qatar.”
