MV Agusta sponsorship
« on: 24 July 2013, 07:59:10 pm »
There has been talk at work lately (Oxford Products), of our company sponsoring an MV team. Don't know if it's WSB or what. Anybody heard anything? Wonder if this'll mean I'll get discount on their bikes? :lol

In the UK MV have had the Superstock1000 racing under Bob Grant/Robinsons of Rochdales. Tristan Palmer quit the team after a few rounds and Harry Stafford had a bad crash at Oulton and rattled his brain around his skull by the sound of it, but is recovering well now. They haven't raced at the last 2 meetings.
MV are also in WSS with ParkinGo MV Agusta Corse & Roberto Rolfo and Christian Iddon. Didn't Iddon race for Oxford/Tag Triumph in BSS recently?

I'd have to check that with my colleague at work - he's the helmet tech for the Ox/Tag Triumph team among others (HJC), so he goes to a lot of the meetings and would probably know.
