Forward Racing

The 15th round of the world championship takes the NGM Mobile Forward Racing Team to Japan. The Twin Ring Motegi circuit will be the first of the three back-to-back Asian races. The team’s goal is clear, start this first race improving the results from the last GP.

In MotoGP Colin Edwards will strive to be in the points and with the setup work done so far, get closer to the best bikes in his category. In Moto2 great expectations for Yuki Takahashi, who at his home race wants to take the opportunity to comeback among the top riders: same for Alex De Angelis who has a score to settle after finishing 6th during last years race at this very circuit.

Yuki Takahashi -72

“It is always great to race here in Motegi, its home! I look forward to having my family and friends here this weekend and I’m sure that this weekend we will be within the points. We have a lot of work ahead of us.”

Alex De Angelis – 15

“After the last race in Aragon I see Motegi as the opportunity to get back to work after a more than unlucky beginning of the race at the last race and have the chance to fight with the lead group.”

Colin Edwards – 5

“We have made several improvements in the last few races, let's hope they come in handy and allow us to find the right setup of the bike to be able to be with the top CRTs.”
