Scott Redding has finally gotten a deal to ride in Moto2 this season and it will be with the Marc VDS Racing Team, under the wings of former Kawasaki team manager Michael Bartholemy.
Redding who turned 17 this month, was the youngest winner ever of a 125cc Grand Prix in 2008, had a disappointing 2009 season and was struggling in finding sponsorship money and ride for 2010, but the talented youngster who hails from Gloucestershire has finally got a new opportunity and will ride in the Belgium based team alongside 19 year old Vincent Lonbois, who contested in European Superstock 600 Championship in 2009, taking 3rd in the standings.
Marc VDS Racing will be using the Suter MMX and Redding will debut on the new Moto2 machine in February and has already tried out FTR and Kalex bikes at Almeria last December.
