Forward Racing

It has not been the best weekend for the NGM Mobile Forward Racing team given the mixed weather conditions on track, the team has still been able to get in the points with Colin Edwards in the 14th position in this last race. A result that does not reflect the efforts of the rider and his team but that allows the American rider to finish the season in 20th place, alongside Danilo Petrucci.
An exciting weekend for the NGM Mobile Forward Racing Team with its new rider Claudio Corti. Dignified debut race for the Italian rider, aside from the crash, with the Inmotec bike. Tuesday the beginning of his new adventure with the CRT begins.

Colin Edwards – 14th

“The conditions for the race were half wet, half dry. You were both gambling if you went with dry and you gambling if you went with wet. With this particular bike I felt the safest option was to go with wet. Went out and our rain setting, we must have changed something from this morning and when I got in the corner and open full gas it just wouldn’t go anywhere. I came in, changed bike and just went out and it stopped downshifting. At that point I was just kind of surviving and waiting to see what happened and finally finished the race and got a few points. The season is over and in a few days we start testing and I am looking forward to it.”

Sergio Verbena – Crew Chief

“This weekend we found a good setting for both rain a dry. Today the track conditions were difficult; we started off with rain tires knowing that we were taking a risk and it didn’t turn out well. We cannot say we are happy of the way the season has ended but I would like to thank Colin because he has invested himself a hundred per cent. The bike was not at a level in which it could match his talent and we will try to work in order to provide him with the necessary to show his full potential.”

Claudio Corti – Not Classified

“Exciting weekend in which the weather conditions have complicated things a bit in my MotoGP debut. I have had a taste of everything; rain, dry, mixed conditions and even a bike change during the race. At some point I was even in the points for a minute but had to turn off the electronics because it was not working as it should and I crashed. I would like to thank Inmotec for this opportunity to ride with their bike, to Avintia Racing for their technical support, great team. On Tuesday the new adventure will begin with NGM Mobile Forward Racing.”
