RW Racing GP is proud to announce it has signed Jakub Kornfeil as its new rider for 2013. In the Dutch based team Kornfeil will succeed Luis Salom, who will move to Red Bull KTM Ajo factory team.
Kornfeil is currently 15th in the Moto3 world championship on a FTR Honda. Five times this season he finished in the top 10, with sixth place as his best result so far on his hometrack Brno. The 19 year old Czech, the Red Bull Rookies champion of three years ago, made his debut in Grand Prix in 2009 (San Marino). In total he has 51 races under his belt in 125cc and Moto3.
Jakub Kornfeil:
"Obviously I’m very happy to have signed with my new team. RW Racing GP has shown it is a competitive team with a competitive bike. I’m really looking forward to working with this team."
Team manager Johan Stigefelt:
"We have been watching Jakub closely for a while allready. He has shown a lot of potential and we strongly believe is a new boost for the team. We continue to work with Kalex KTM and we hope this collaboration will bring us the results we are having this year.
We still have four races to go and Luis Salom still has the world title within reach. That remains our goal for the near future. We are sorry to see Luis go, but we wish him all the best with his new team."
