The FIM has finally released the list of CRT teams which will be allowed to participate in the 2012 MotoGP Championship, and from the sixteen that originally claimed interest at Estoril and then skimmed to eleven have been further whittled down to a mere six, with those teams already in Moto2 GP getting the priority and it seems that there may even be new manufacturers applying, but they are still under discussion on whether they can enter under CRT rules (24 lt and 12 engines).
Here’s the entry list:- By Queroseno Racing (BQR)- Forward Racing- Kiefer Racing- Marc VDS Racing- Paddock GP Racing (Interwetten)- Speed MasterAs expected Marc VDS Racing is present because they’ve been working on the Suter/BMW Moto1 for several months and been testing extensively, but the other teams have yet to produce anything concrete, Speed Master is making the jump with Andrea Iannone (the team is run by his father) and is expected to use an Aprilia RSV4 engine with a FTR chassis.
