After the start of the championship at Qatar in the desert night, the MotoGP circus comes back to Europe to start round two of the championship in Spain at the wonderful circuit of Jerez de la Frontera on Sunday 30th March. JiR Team Scot has both riders in excellent spirits, thanks to their good results at the first round of the series. Both Andrea Dovizioso with his Honda RC212V and Yuki Takahashi with his 250GP two-stroke Honda have both shown that they can fight without fear of anyone against the best riders in each of the categories. They are both now looking forward to getting more good results at the Andalusian track, as the team morale is high thanks to the excellent work they have already done at the track in winter testing.
