Japanese Moto2 rider Tetsuta Nagashima will join Australian Remy Gardner in the SAG (Stop And Go) Moto2 team next year, with the long-awaited confirmation of the Spanish team’s line-up.
As previously reported, Gardner – son of 1987 500cc World Champion Wayne – was recruited soon after the summer break, but promised official confirmation had to wait until his new team-mate was confirmed, in the days before the Japanese GP.
Nagashima is in his third full Moto2 season, with a best finish of eighth (his second top ten) at the Thai GP two weeks ago.
