What are the objectives for your first season of competition?

PM
We have to be realistic about our chances in the first season. Although the package of the bike is good and we have an excellent rider with Ruben we have to be patient and learn a lot. We will try to establish ourselves in the top 10 within the first season. We will also try to consistently close the gap to the top teams. In year 2 we plan to catch up with the top teams and to win our first podiums. In the end we of course want to win the championship.
