After the news this weekend in Portugal that 250cc hero Hiroshi Aoyama will race in MotoGP next year under the management
of current Emmi - Caffe Latte boss Daniel M. Epp, the Japanese competitor shared his thoughts about his career move.
Crossing the line in fourth place at Estoril with a 28 point advantage and only three events left, Aoyama looks ahead to
his premier class adventure, stating, “It was one of my targets to go into MotoGP and finally I have got it. It has
taken a long time so I am really happy about it. There has been a lot of co-operation from a lot of people to organise this,
so I want to thank all the guys.”
He has done an excellent job on his return to Honda this year and he will
compete on a Honda RC212V in MotoGP next season. On his objectives with the switch to 800cc competition Aoyama concludes,
“It will be a new category for me so I don’t know yet how well I will ride the bike. It is a very important series
and the level is the best in the world. It won’t be easy but I want to fight with those riders and try to always make
my performances better.”
