San Carlo Honda Gresini presents his 'almost' All-Italian Team

The San Carlo Honda Gresini Team’s official presentation took place yesterday at the Telenova studios in Milan, hosted by presenter Franco Bobbiese, during his show Griglia di Partenza ( our readers already know about this show) where Team Manager Fausto Gresini alongside the President of San Carlo introduced his all-Italian ‘dream team’ Marco Melandri and Marco Simoncelli to the world press (and Italian TV viewers last night).

Here’s what everyone said in the usual official press release, but the show was much more interesting with some clowining around and some cute anecdotes by short Marco and tall Marco, including the legendary Giacomo Agostini (via video) advising Simoncelli to take one step at a time after his big highside during the Sepang 2 tests.

Fausto Gresini : “Today was a really special day because a personal dream of mine has been fulfilled – having two top riders contest the MotoGP World Championship with my team and an Italian sponsor like San Carlo.
I am proud to represent Italy around the world and I am looking forward to going racing this year – hopefully we can ensure that our flag flies high at circuits all over the world.

” Marco Melandri “It has been a different and enjoyable day.
Professional engagements like this are always good fun as far as I am concerned.
This afternoon was like the warm-up and tonight will be like the race, when we go live on air for ‘Griglia di partenza’ on Telenova!”Marco Simoncelli “I’m really happy to be at this presentation although I would prefer to be on my bike! I think this could be a really good year for us.
We need to work well from the start but I really think we can gives ourselves plenty of reason to celebrate!”
