WSBK: Lavilla to miss Valencia

Despite assurances from Pro Ride manager Marco Nicotari that after missing the first two WSBK rounds, Gregorio Lavilla would be riding in Valencia, news from Spain has it that Pro Ride Team will not joining the championship even in Valencia on April 5th and from the looks of it will pull out completely from this season’s championship.

Pro Ride was born out of the Alto Evolution project, but had to cancel the rounds at Phillip Island and Qatar when two sponsors pulled out at the last minute leaving them cash strapped.
Gregorio Lavilla signed for the Pro-Ride Honda team last November after leaving Paul Bird’s Ventaxia VK Honda team.
