Although we had been announcing it for some time, it was not until the official closing of the 2015 season, which took place yesterday in Cal Rosal with the proclamation of the new Spanish Champion, Toni Bou, when Jeroni Fajardo communicated his plans for the 2016 season.
The rider from Girona gets out of his Beta EVO, on which he has been working for the last four years, and becomes part of the ambitious Vertigo project, within a structure where Dougie Lampkin is integrated as head of development and director of the competition team. Jeroni Fajardo’s initial contract is for two seasons and he will share the structure with James Dabill and Francesc Moret. Now there is a hard job ahead of us to reach the debut date, in Sheffield on January 9, with as much adaptation as possible.
This week the popular Milan Motorcycle Show EICMA will take place and Fajardo will be accompanying Vertigo on the same stage where just a year ago the new brand was presented to the world for the first time.
Jeroni Fajardo: “I am very happy to be part of Vertigo. I have followed the project very closely and the progress of the last two years has been impressive, now is the perfect time to work together and find new motivations. Obviously there is a very important moment of adaptation to the bike and the team, but it’s a challenge that I’m looking forward to taking on. Finally, I would like to thank Beta for its support over the past few years.”
