Instead of running two very expensive Honda RC213Vs in next season’s MotoGP championship, Fausto Gresini has decided to split his garage and also run a CRT machine thus confirming the recent rumors.
The Italian manager has opted for a chassis made by FTR Moto and a Honda CBR1000R engine (probably under pressure by Honda, as he initally seemed interested in an Aprilia RSV4) and the new team will begin testing the bike as soon as they announce their new rider.

Fausto Gresini said, “It is a source of great satisfaction that we have reached an agreement with FTR Moto to take part in the new MotoGP series, CRT.
The battle between the Claiming Rule Teams will be an exciting one and we are entering it with great enthusiasm.
Our willingness to take part was always based on the condition that we had the right technical partner and with FTR Moto and a Honda CBR 1000R engine we believe we can build a competitive bike for this new category.

It is a new adventure that appeals to our racing spirit and it could prove to be the future of MotoGP.

We will work our hardest and I am sure we will have great results together.
”“We are absolutely delighted to start up a partnership with Team San Carlo Honda Gresini and to join them on a new adventure in MotoGP,” said Steve Bones, CEO of FTR Moto.
“Team Gresini have shown over the years that they are technically competent, as their numerous successes prove, and we are sure that will continue alongside FTR on this new adventure.
The growing interest in the new MotoGP-CRT category is exciting for all of us and we can’t wait to get on track as soon as possible to start developing the bike and breaking new technical boundaries.
