CERVELLIN REPLACES LEIB IN THE US AND BRAZIL MX GRAND PRIX
2010 MX2 Italian Champion Andrea Cervellin will replace injured Californian rider Michael Leib, who is still recovering from the effects of a crash and subsequent head injury sustained at the previous round of the Italian MX championship in Faenza.
This means that the Husqvarna Ricci Racing Team will now have an all Italian line-up, with Cervellin joining Alessandro Lupino for the next two GPs, as Martino Bianchi, the coordinator of sporting activities for Husqvarna, explains:
"We decided to reward Andrea for the persistence and constancy he has showed in the hardest moments. After the knee injury, Andrea had an important operation, which left him out of racing for six months. But with sacrifice and hard work he managed to come back quickly, as he showed in the tough first round of the European Championship in Holland. We are sorry for Leib and we wish him a speedy recovery. We're counting on him!"
