Alberto Forato considering racing a 450cc in 2021 – MXGP?
Young Italian talent, Alberto Forato still has a few years racing in the MX2 World Championship if that’s the route he wants to go down but looking at his size and stature – he would clearly suit the 450cc much better!
Forato has to push the 250cc quite hard and it’s meant an injury this year which has really set him back – he’s still not 100%. The Italian has confirmed he is considering racing a 450cc in 2021 which might see him make the step up to the MXGP World Championship.
“I am really big for the 250cc for sure. I am considering racing the 450cc next year”, Forato told MXGP.tv.
Forato isn’t a complete stranger to the 450cc as he raced it in the International Italian Championship pre-season and looked good on the bigger bike. It remains to be seen if he’ll land an MXGP ride but he has been linked with a move to the SM-Action Yamaha team – the silly season talk is that they might even switch manufactures to GasGas!
