After spending two not so proficuous years in Moto2 (23rd in 2010 and 22nd 2012) with MZ Racing, Anthony West will return to MotoGP with a CRT team.
According to his Facebook page the Australian rider will be riding for Speed Master, who will making the big jump to MotoGP.
The all Italian team is run by Andrea Iannone’s father Regalino, and Silvio Vercilli with the collaboration of Alessio Salucci aka “Uccio.
” Speed Master has yet to announce which CRT powerplant and chassis they’ll be using, but it is believed it will be a FTR chassis with a Honda or an Aprilia engine, both of which have yet to be seen officially on track.
Andrea Iannone will probably remain in Moto2 another season, while West carries out all the testing work and races on the Speed Master CRT machine, until the younger Iannone is ready to make the switch to the Moto1 series.
