Recently announcing he will race a British made FTR chassis in the upcoming category this year, Alex Debón has offered details on his new project.

Debón will have a challenging season, along with racing he he will also head Motor Sport 69 which is a company release to allow his involvement in the World Championship after Aprilia.

“Motor Sport 69 is the company we have created to compete in 2010. It is a totally new team and we will ride with Aki Ajo’s place, which he has given to us in order to contend this World Championship. It’s a big gamble but I am convinced we have made the right reinforcements to make this structure work,” explains Debón.

“The team will be called Team Aeroport de Castelló-Ajo, and I am in charge of sponsorship and other various functions. We have agreed with FTR that we will be in charge of developing the bike with Xavi Soldevila as engineer. I have also contracted the services of a technical team that I know very well. They’re great professionals and I’m convinced that I have team that is greatly suited to me.”

Debón will confirm full details whilst testing in Barcelona on February 15. This is his first opportunity to race the bike and start development work.

“This project is very appealing and I’m very excited because it’s about the development of a new bike for everyone in the World Championship, and there are specific regulations for the engine, electronics and fuel” Debón adds. “The chassis and other components are down to the rider and this is where my experience and, above all, the expertise of my engineer will be crucial for the tuning of a winning bike.”

“It’s going to be a hard-fought category, but at the same time very exciting and competitive. This year everything is new to everyone and with the exception of Jerez and Valencia, where everyone has trained hard, the circuits are completely new (to the Moto2 bikes), and I think we can take advantage of the experience we have.”
