In response to an interview held between Speed Week and Sito Pons – the proprietor of the Flexbox HP40 and Pons Racing 40 – model variety has been a worsening situation in Moto2. Pons himself has been with a Moto2 group since 2010 and has been devoted to his personal producer – Kalex – earlier than KTM and MV Agusta (Moriwaki, FTR, TSR, MZ, Suter, and NTS) left.
In the present day, the Moto2 circuit sports activities almost all Kalex machines, with solely two (Boscoscuro) machines from one other maker for the earlier season, threatening Moto2’s way forward for turning right into a Kalex model cup.
“On the finish of the day, KTM and the opposite producers pursue a intelligent idea, as a result of they promote GASGAS or KTM and Fantic on the bikes, so viewers consider that these manufacturers are hidden beneath,” explains Pons.
“The promoting impact is large, the trouble is manageable, and this protects these [teams] some huge cash…[and we lack the support of a manufacturer.”

In brief, Pons needs “extra initiative from the Moto2 group operators of Yamaha, Honda, Fantic, KTM, GASGAS and Husqvarna, who may construct their very own chassis” – a good demand to make, contemplating the slim pickings.
