With many successful results, Busto leads a new generation of riders that are going to play an important role in the sport over the coming years, which is why Vertigo didn't hesitate when the opportunity of signing him came up Busto and Gas Gas parted ways only a few days ago.
"Vertigo considers Busto's youth, ambition, talent and motivation give him what it takes to fight absolutely for everything," the firm said. "From the very first moment, Busto's affection towards Vertigo's proposal was very positive, especially after a test run aboard the Vertical R."
