De Gea confirmed at WCM.

The FIM has today released the official entry list for round two of the 2003 MotoGP World Championship, the Africa's Grand Prix, which confirms that David de Gea will ride the second Harris WCM machine in Welkom, on April 27.

The Spaniard, a former D'Antin rider in the 250cc class, will campaign the #24 bike alongside WCM 'regular' Chris Burns (pictured), although the Brit will also be hoping to make his class debut at the African event, after being robbed of a much deserved start at Suzuka due to a lack of engines.
