Paul Bird Motorsport will have its own chassis and 2 MotoGP riders in 2013

The Paul Bird Motorsport team spoke at the Silverstone Grand Prix about the 2013 season, as many new developments are expected from them. Specifically, it has been confirmed that within the CRT subcategory they will have their own chassis, so a step forward for this world championship team.

With this news we have a development for next season: it was Paul Bird himself who confirmed the news, they will have their own chassis, which is expected to be ready before the end of the year. In addition, the possibility of two riders for next season has also been discussed, so there are many new developments to look forward to for 2013 within the CRTs.

The start of the season for the team has not been easy with the ART, and there was even speculation that they might bring in another rider for their machine, leaving James Ellison out, but the position of #77 in the team was confirmed, and results are expected to keep improving, since right now it is one of the CRTs with the most potential, alongside the ARTs of Aleix Espargaró and Randy de Puniet.

For now there has been no comment on who the riders of those two machines will be, but it will be a completely British line-up, a bet on home-grown riders to keep growing within the MotoGP World Championship. One name keeps reappearing: Shane Byrne, the BSB rider, who has prestige and is one of the strong men among the British riders.

PBM’s step forward for 2013 is interesting.
