The Italian has officially confirmed his return to the Moto2 class, signing with the Technomag-CIP team for the 2012 season. Rolfo will join team mate Dominique Aegerter as he makes his Moto2 return following a year in the World Superbike series.
Once again, the team will be riding Suter- a motorbike which Rolfo helped to test and develop back in 2009.
Roberto Rolfo: “In 2010 we disputed the final race in Valencia Moto2 and then…things were left unfinished. But you can’t leave things halfway; you fight to carry them out…I’m returning to Moto2 in 2012 with Technomag-CIP, a team led by Alain Bronec. I’m very happy because the team operates at a high level and has shown great professionalism over the years.
“I’m happy to be back riding a 600. I’m getting better, my knee rehabilitation has been going well and I’m looking forward to getting back on a bike. In early December, the team will meet to plan the winter work program and work on getting set for the first race of a season that is very important to me.”
