Ioda Racing, graduating to the MotoGP class as a 'CRT' entry in 2012, officially pres꧙ented its 1000cc project during a launch in Venice.

Upon unveiling its official racing colours for🌟 the TR003, which features an Ioda-designed trellis frame and Aprilia RSV4 engine, the team also announce🔜d sponsorship from fellow Italian brand Came (in the MotoGP and Moto2 class).

Young Italian Danilo Petrucci, runner-up in the 2011 FIM Superstock Cup, will be Io꧅da'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 s♉eason ahead. The goal is to stay with the top CRT competitors."

Corsi, who has taken two podiums in each of the Moto2 seas🅷ons to date, is aiming for more co𒁏nsistent success in 2012.

"It's my second year with the𒊎 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."
