Over the years, SpeedUp/Boscoscuro has been growing in the Moto2 World Championship and is now a serious rival to Kalex. In fact, four of the top five riders in the championship at this point ride bikes from the Italian manufacturer. But is MotoGP part of their future plans?
Team owner Luca Boscoscuro was asked by GPOne.com if this idea had ever been considered. In response, he admitted that realizing their ambitions in the premier class would be difficult:
– It’s logical that this would be the top, but to make such a leap, you need the basics, including at the economic level. Going there just to participate is not my ambition; I would like to fight to finish in the top five, and that is much more difficult nowadays.
On the other hand, Boscoscuro was not entirely pleased with the 2027 regulations: ‘In my opinion, the reduction in displacement is too small. I think that by 2027, 850cc engines will already have the performance of 1,000cc ones. From the aerodynamic point of view, it’s good that they are eliminating the height adjustment devices; I didn’t expect anything else. I was expecting more restrictive regulations because the bikes now are beautiful, but they are very, very fast’.
