World Superbike Favourite Chili
Signs up for Moto1 2005
Italian World Superbike Favourite Frankie Chili has announced
he will line up at Mallory Park in October to compete in the
2005 Dunlop Moto 1 Challenge.
Pier Francesco "Frankie" Chili, a firm favourite
with World Superbike fans, started his racing career over
23 years ago and is currently 9th in the championship standings
on his Klaffi Honda Fireblade. Having raced GP and Superbikes
around the globe Frankie now faces a stern challenge in the
unique form of the Dunlop's Moto 1 event. Dunlop Moto 1 pitches
24 riders from all forms of motorcycle sport against each
other, and comprises Road Racing, Trials, Supermoto and Motocross
events, along with a new addition for 2005, the MotoPentathlon.
Frankie must earn as many points as possible in each leg
of the event with the hope of topping the leader board on
the second day and being crowned Moto 1 2005 Champion. Frankie
will be competing against road racing stars such as People's
Champion Chris Walker, British Superbike stars Karl Harris,
Steve Plater, plus Supersport aces Stuart Easton and Craig
Jones. They will face off against reigning British Trials
Champion Steve Colley, along with former and current Supermoto
Champions Ady Smith, Leighton Haigh, Christian Iddon and Matt
Winstanley. Motocross will be well represented by World GP
winner Billy Mackenzie and David Campbell, whilst Speedway
star Kelvin Tatum will be aiming to showcase his riding talent.
To ensure the boys do not have it all their own way trials
star Maria Conway and Motocrosser Anita Jane Doran will be
aiming to become the first female Moto 1 Champion.
