JiR and Kopron Team Scot announce an important new collaboration to race in the 2008 Motorcycle World Championship in the MotoGP and 250cc categories. The joint announcement is made by Gianluca Montiron, the owner of JiR MotoGP Team, Cirano Mularoni – currently team manager of Kopron Team Scot – and the president of Scot Group, Giovanni Torri. The program involves a common development of a sporting and commercial activity starting from the lower categories and aims to create a project for talented young riders and a route to the highest class in motorcycle racing. All parties have expressed mutual satisfaction with the agreement achieved, meaning a strategic partnership that will see the debut of emerging ace Andrea Dovizioso in the premier class and the renewed recruitment of the Japanese rider Yuki Takahashi in the 250cc category, both running on Honda machines.
