    Hector Barbera to ride for Avintia Blusens CRT team?



    According to Spanish website motocuatro.com, Hector Barbera has signed a two-year deal to ride for Avintia Blusens CRT team.
    The Spaniard - who will probably need a bodyguard to defend himself from angry Dani Pedrosa fans in next week’s Motorland Aragaon MotoGP round after what happened at Misano - was left without a ride when Ducati decided to take over the Pramac squad and field Ben Spies and Andrea Iannone in 2013 and his only hope to continue in MotoGP was to turn to a CRT team as there is still only one MotoGP satellite machine left to be assigned, and Barbera was never on Fausto Gresini’s shopping list.
    The Spanish website is also reporting that Barbera will be receiving 200,000 euros per season (which is a big jump from the 50,000 he was reportedly receiving from Pramac) and also had the same economic offer from Ioda Racing.
    We expect that the official confirmation will be coming next week, and at the moment it isn’t known whether he will replace David Salom, who just joined the team replacing Ivan Silva or Colombian rider Yonny Hernandez.
