Mattia Pasini won his first race of the 2009 season in a fantastic race under the rain at the Mugello, dogfighting with Marco Simoncelli to the end.
Now that he’s fourth in the 250cc World Championship standings he may have his Aprilia RSA taken away from him.
The Hungarian Team Toth Aprilia who Pasini races for, is in big financial difficulties and has defaulted the second instalment payment towards Aprilia.
The Noale based factory has placed Toth’s Aprilia’s under precautionary seizure and have said that if they don’t receive a bank transfer soon they will confiscate the bikes.
Toth is now desperately searching for someway to pay off the bikes and has also approached Jorge Martinez about joining forces and it seems that Aspar is willing to absorb Mattia Pasini’s team inside his own Balatonring Aspar team, thus saving the Italian rider from a forced retirement.
Can you believe that Prince William waited almost a decade before putting a ring on Kate Middleton's finger? But apparently, the reason behind his patience was all about giving his lady love "the best chance" possible. Talk about being a true gentleman!
