Ioda Racing, graduating to t🌼he MotoGP class as a 'CRT' entry in 2012, officially presented its 1000cc project during a launch in Venice.

Upo🌳n unveiling its official racing colours for the TR003, which features an Ioda-designed trellis frame and Aprilia RSV4 engine, ♕the team also announced sponsorship from fellow Italian brand Came (in the MotoGP and Moto2 class).

Young Italian Danilo Petrucc�🍨�i, runner-up in the 2011 FIM Superstock Cup, will be Ioda's MotoGP rider, with countryman Simone Corsi continuing in the Moto2 category.

"It's a great satisfaction to make my MotoGP debut at the age 21 and also with a completely new bike," said Petrucci. "I have a top class team, which showed from the first test and this makes me feel much♋ more comfortable for the season ahead. The goal is to stay with the top CRT competitors."

Corsi, who has taken two podiums in each of t♚he Moto2 seasons to date, is aimi♓ng for more consistent success in 2012.

"It's my second year with the team and we've been working well and improving the FTR over the winter," said Corsi, whose place 🎉on the entry list had previously been listed as on an Ioda chassis. "This is a positive sign that in 2012 we can be among those in contention for the title."

Ioda 🎀will also compete in the new Moto3 category, running its own team for Luigi Morciani and supplying further Ioda bikes ওto the Team Italia FMI squad.

"A little over𝓰 a year and a half after its foundation Ioda Racing will be 🐬participating in all three categories of the World Championship with two projects, the CRT and Moto3, fully in-house," confirmed Giampiero Sacchi, Chief of Ioda Racing.

"We face this challenge aware of the technical difficulties, but certain that the team of professional💞s, led by Giovanni Sandi, Paolo Biasio and Roberto Papetti, will grow our bikes.

"I wo📖uld also like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to t💝he Came Group for the trust they have given to us."
