Aprilia shelves its Moto2 project

Who can blame Aprilia?

The concept of Moto2 is interesting, but Doma's idea they can restriction to one make of motor, hard to understand. Like Aprilia it is impossible for the other Bike manufactures to be associated with the sport and Moto2 on certain tracks will out pace the GP1 slower riders.

Doma have lost the plot and to focused on TV coverage and the assumed money, rather than the sport.

This is all good news for BSB and WSB!

Moto GP, thanks to Doma has lost the plot!

No British rider in Moto GP why even bother to watch -it!

LOL!

Moto2 - *yawn*   All the exitement of a bunch of hornets buzzing around the track.

 Why bother with a new class, we can watch one make series anytime we want, aka, super duke cup, speed triple cup etc.

Rather negative their guys wouldn't ya say?

250's have always produced close tight racing, Dorna wished to update this class to move with the times (since 2 stroke is a dying out) but also reduce the costs of development to open up the class to other companies. (since they don't have to dev an engine too)

Smart move in my opinion but they really should've let companies use engines from a selection of manufacturers.
