Andrew Pitt to replace Alex De Angelis in Moto2
Dual World Champion Andrew Pitt will replace Alex De Angelis on the Scot Racing Team GP210 at Brno as the Italian rider replaces injured Japanese ace
Hiroshi Aoyama in the MotoGP class.
With vast MotoGP, superbike and supersport experience, Andrew will help the team develop and evolve the bike beginning with testing in Italy in a fortnight.
Andrew Pitt, “It’s a great opportunity for me to return to grand prix racing and the team are happy. I’ll help them with the switch from Showa to Ohlins suspension and with engine settings as I have Honda 600 experience.
“It’s definitely an extremely competitive and tough class so I’m looking forward to the challenge. It should be like the old days in world supersport when there were full grids and 15 possible winners in every race. I’m looking forward to testing the machine and then racing at Brno”.
