Three Suzukis for Brno

The Suzuki MotoGP squad will field three riders at the Czech MotoGP round at Brno on Sunday, August 28,3005.

John Hopkins will be back at full fitness following an operation to plate his broken left foot, injured at the last round at the Sachsenring in Germany. He’ll be riding alongside regular team-mate Kenny Roberts Jnr, and also Suzuki test rider Nobuatsu Aoki. Aoki has raced in the GP series since 1990, and will enter to assist with the development of the GSV-R machine, followed by a further two days at the circuit to test Bridgestone tyes.

The team are hopefull of a good result as the twisty and flowing Brno circuit should suit the GSV-R. In 2004, Hopkins topped both dry practice sessions. The race starts at 14:00 CET on Sunday, August 28, 2005.
