Erv Kanemoto: HRC’s prodigal son
Interview, 23/02/05
Seventeen years after parting company with Honda Racing to start his own team, revered engineer Erv Kanemoto has been hired by the Japanese factory this season in a bid to revive their flagging fortunes in the MotoGP World Championship.
The HRC supported Repsol Honda squad endured one of their toughest campaigns ever in 2004, failing to win a single race after the departure of Valentino Rossi to Yamaha.
However, the arrival of Max Biaggi and his former mentor Kanemoto, who helped the Italian to the 250cc title in 1997 and guided him to the runner-up spot in his debut 500cc season, has given the team fresh impetus ahead of the new season.
