The 2011 Moto2 grid is slowly taking shape, even if more than half of the 22 teams have yet to confirm their line-ups despite this weekend’s race at Valencia is the last of the season and Moto2 is testing on Monday.
Jack&Jones By Antonio Banderas team (what a mouthful) has confirmed Kenny Noyes for another season with them.
The team will be dropping the Promoharris frame they used this year and will be switching to a Suter.
Noyes and his team mate (which has yet to be announced) will test the 2010 version of the Suter chassis during the Moto2 tests, until the team receives the new 2011 chassis in January.
“I’m really looking forward to next year! I learned so much this last season, all the new tracks we went to, and I kinda got a grip on all the traveling and the back-to-back races.
So I’m real excited to be back next year with the team, and on a competitive chassis.
” declared Noyes.
“I think the Suter’s a really balanced bike, I see a lot of guys with different riding styles that go well on it.
I’d hoped this year would be a level playing field, but from Mugello, we started to see we had a disadvantage.
So if we push hard next year, we should be on a level with the rest, and hopefully towards the front again!”
