It has been officially confirmed that reigning 250cc world champion Marco Simoncelli will ride for Gresini Honda in the 2010 MotoGP World Championship.
During the Grand Prix of Catalunya it was rumoured that Simoncelli had signed an agreement with HRC that would see the Italian make his MotoGP debut with Gresini in 2010.
Those rumours were publically denied, but an announcement by the Gresini team on the eve of this weekend's Dutch TT confirmed the 22-year-old as the first new rider on the 2010 MotoGP grid.
A new rule prevents rookies riding for a factory MotoGP team, except Suzuki, but Simoncelli could still potentially enjoy factory HRC support and equipment within the Gresini structure.
