Michel Fabrizio - Ducati Xerox 2009
As Mika Kallio take over the reins for the Marlboro Ducati MotoGP rider Casey Stoner, Michel Fabrizio has been drafted in to ride for the Pramac Racing team.
Fabrizio, who is currently riding for the World Superbike Xerox Ducati team said;
“I want to thank Ducati and Pramac for this gift. Brno is my favorite track and therefore the right place to come back riding a MotoGP 800cc bike after the last time at Sachsenring two years ago. I know that I can’t expect too much because the GP9 is so different compared to my 1198 F09. The priority is to have some fun and enjoy a different weekend for me. I also want to wish all the best to Casey to be back in top form as soon as possible!”
Paolo Campinoti, team boss for Pramac said;
“As soon as we found out that Casey wouldn’t ride for the next three races at Brno, Indianapolis and Misano, together with Ducati Corse managerial staff we decided that our rider Mika Kallio would ride with the Ducati factory team due to the good results he has achieved with us.
So we were looking for a valid substitute for Kallio and Ducati’s proposal to take Michel Fabrizio was the optimal choice. Although he is still young Michel has great experience and we believe he can get good results.”
