If you’ve followed the silly season shenanigans closely in the off season, you will know that Blusens Aprilia 125cc refugee, Scott Redding, is currently without a ride for 2010, having been linked to a few fruitless talks with various Moto2 teams. Scott certainly has the talent to excel in the Moto2 class, but is currently suffering with a lack of sponsorship deals to land him a Moto2 ride.
In a gesture of solidarity with the Scott Redding Supporters Club, we’d like to take this opportunity to promote the new “Scott Redding 2010″ website, which aims to push publicity and interaction with the cause way beyond its core Facebook presence. With the “Scott Redding 2010” project one of our sister sites, MotoGPBrits.com delivered a website for the Scott Redding Supporters Club to help focus attention on their mission outside of the Facebook environment where it had largely operated before. Whilst over 300 million people use Facebook, over 6.7 billion people use the internet as a whole so it makes sense to ensure that the campaign to try and secure Scott a Moto2 ride for the 2010 MotoGP season reached as broad an audience as possible.
The site will serve as an ongoing news magazine to cover events and fundraising activities run by the Supporters Club, to ensure as many internet users as possible find out about the cause and to enable easy access to instant online donation mechanisms.
We believe it’s a brilliant cause, and hopefully one that will engage all those many potential fans and supporters who don’t use Facebook.
Please share the news and the link, and ideally make a donation too if you can – Scott’s a superb rider and *anything* that can be done to move his career forward is a good cause.
