Official: Angel Rodriguez loses Moto2 ride after poor start to the season

The Moto2 World Championship Team Desguaces La Torre SAG and Ángel Rodríguez decided to split up the rest of the season 2012.

The lack of competitive results proposed at the beginning of the season have been the cause that both sides take this decision that makes difficult a breaking of a good relationship, and it isn’t for any other cause that the Desguaces La Torre SAG Team now wishes Ángel Rodríguez all the best for the future.

Eduardo Perales, team manager of the squad based in Sant Fruitós del Bages, expressed with this words the decision taken jointly with the rider from Elche:

“Sincerly, when we started this project with Rodri, I never thought that we will arrive at this point, but the sports relationship, opposite to the human terms, it wasn’t being fruitful and both the team and Ángel considered that the best thing for our results is to take different paths. I truly believe that Rodri has a huge potential and I hope we could see it soon.”

The Desguaces La Torre SAG Team is looking now for a substitute to finish the season with, opening the possibility to start a project looking forward the 2013 season.
