Beleagured from the start with lofty goals and un-true press releases, FB Corse has struggle both technically and financially to get on the MotoGP grid. After suffering a setback of not being given the green light to race while testing  at Valencia, FB Corse seemed determined to make at least ...]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/racing/garry-mccoy-leaves-fb-corse/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>1</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>FB Corse Delays Testing Over the Flu</title><link>http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/news/fb-corse-delays-testing-flu/</link> <comments>http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/news/fb-corse-delays-testing-flu/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Wed, 14 Apr 2010 18:54:50 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Jenny Gun</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[News]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Racing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Fb Corse]]></category> <category><![CDATA[flu]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Garry McCoy]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Jerez]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Misano]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Misano test]]></category> <category><![CDATA[MotoGP]]></category> <category><![CDATA[testing]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/?p=10123</guid> <description><![CDATA[We feel like we&#8217;ve heard this before&#8230;oh wait, we have. FB Corse has announced it will push back its second testing date back to the last week April because rider Garry McCoy has been suffering from the flu. You may remember the FB Corse pulled a similar move, and pushed back the launch of their team presentation when issues concerning the signing of John Hopkins arose.

We here at Asphalt &#038; Rubber were big fans of the Aprilia RS3 Cube, despite its propensity to catch fire. And while FB Corse may have drawn our ire for less than truthful media communications, their Oral Engineering designed three cylinder motor leaves us hoping the team can get their act together and make it into MotoGP so we can continue to hear its throaty tune.]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/racing/fb-corse-fb01-triple-valencia-video/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>5</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Dorna Slaps FB Corse on the Wrist for Overstatement</title><link>http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/racing/fb-corse-correction-not-entered-motogp/</link> <comments>http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/racing/fb-corse-correction-not-entered-motogp/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Fri, 19 Mar 2010 00:26:07 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Jenny Gun</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Popular]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Racing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Dorna]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Fb Corse]]></category> <category><![CDATA[FB Corse FB01]]></category> <category><![CDATA[FB01]]></category> <category><![CDATA[MotoGP]]></category> <category><![CDATA[slapped on the wrist]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/?p=9512</guid> <description><![CDATA[It's refreshing to see that the Dorna is about as amused as we are here at Asphalt &#038; Rubber over FB Corse's "extremely positive" press release after the Italian MotoGP-hopeful team was denied entry into the premiere motorcycle prototype racing class. At the request of Dorna delegates, FB Corse has issued a second press release that rescinds their previous statement of being admitted into MotoGP, and now clarifies the situation with some prose that's a little bit closer to the reality and truth of the matter.The big takeaway from the situation is that FB Corse must now prove the FB01 in a race simulation test, which would have the race bike complete a race distance at race pace to show not only the bike's competitiveness, but also its reliability.]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/racing/fb-corse-correction-not-entered-motogp/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>1</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>FB Corse Spins MotoGP Rejection, Will Enter at Jerez</title><link>http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/racing/fb-corse-spins-rejection-motogp-jerez/</link> <comments>http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/racing/fb-corse-spins-rejection-motogp-jerez/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Wed, 17 Mar 2010 22:57:48 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Jenny Gun</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Racing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Fb Corse]]></category> <category><![CDATA[MotoGP]]></category> <category><![CDATA[press release]]></category> <category><![CDATA[spin]]></category> <category><![CDATA[testing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[the truth is out there]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/?p=9479</guid> <description><![CDATA[Literally no sooner did we finish our piece on FB Corse missing the boat to start MotoGP at Qatar, than the want-to-be race team released its own press statement, putting some spin on the situation. In what seems to defy logic, FB Corse claims that they have been admitted into MotoGP, and will start at Jerez round of the series, which seems to &#8220;enhance&#8221; the statement by Dorna that the team may be able &#8220;to ...]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/racing/fb-corse-spins-rejection-motogp-jerez/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>5</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>FB Corse Denied Entry into MotoGP</title><link>http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/racing/fb-corse-denied-motogp/</link> <comments>http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/racing/fb-corse-denied-motogp/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Wed, 17 Mar 2010 20:49:47 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Jenny Gun</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Racing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Dorna]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Fb Corse]]></category> <category><![CDATA[FB Corse 34100]]></category> <category><![CDATA[FB01]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Franco Ucini]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Garry McCoy]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Hoppergate]]></category> <category><![CDATA[IRTA]]></category> <category><![CDATA[MotoGP]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Oral Engineering Group]]></category> <category><![CDATA[testing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Valencia]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/?p=9471</guid> <description><![CDATA[Hopes were dashed in Valencia today as FB Corse was denied the opportunity to enter the 2010 MotoGP series with the rest of the field at Qatar on April 11th.

The move comes just days after McCoy was dropped by one of Triumph&#8217;s Factory WSS team, BE1 Racing, and FB Corse got the official &#8220;peace out&#8221; from John Hopkins. With McCoy likely to find only teams in Moto2 looking for riders, the timing for both parties couldn&#8217;t have been better.
