MotoGP: Toni Elias with Forward Racing from Aragon

Forward Racing 2015 – Starting from Aragon, Forward Racing will field Spaniard Toni Elias, an old acquaintance from the world championship. The former Moto2 World Champion will join the Team from the next race scheduled at Motorland in Aragon on September 27th. For Elias it is a return to the Top Class, where he made his debut in 2005 with the Fortuna Yamaha team.

Making way for him was our Claudio Corti, who had returned to the Yamaha Open in place of the departing Stefan Bradl from the German GP. The Team wanted to thank the Como native for making himself available in a delicate moment.

“I can only be happy to return to racing in MotoGP. This year I have already been on track in Indianapolis, but only for one race, while with Forward I will have the chance to finish the season – explained Toni Elias – I want to thank Giovanni and the whole team for this great opportunity. The goal is to work hard and have fun: that's how the results will come. I am motivated and excited.”

“I am happy to welcome Toni Elias to our team for this season finale. He will race with us for 5 races, two of which on Spanish soil – he said Giovanni Cuzari – We are proud to once again have a former World Champion riding the Forward Yamaha. Special thanks go to Claudio, who has always been linked to Forward Racing, who raced with us in these last races, making himself completely available to the team."
