“Everyone knows that I was always a big fan of car racing and I was always interested in racing on four wheels when my MotoGP career came to an end. Now I am fully available to dedicate myself to a high level car racing program with the right professional approach. WRT is the right choice and I look forward to starting this new GTWCE adventure with them.”
