Literally, it took minutes to formalize our continuing partnership and we are very glad that Alpinestars is part of our program as they do not only bring along their incredible history, quality, design and reputation, they are also extremely proactive and committed in promoting our sport and supporting in every way possible the MXGPs all around the world”.
