LCR Honda confirm the signing of Cal Crutchlow

LCR Honda has confirmed that Cal Crutchlow will join the team for the 2015 MotoGP season.

The news comes after Ducati had earlier confirmed that Crutchlow was leaving their team, with 24-year-old Italian rider Andrea Iannone already lined up as his replacement.

"LCR is proud to announce 2015 rider Cal Crutchlow," LCR Honda announced on Twitter on Saturday afternoon.

Crutchlow, 28, will replace Stefan Bradl, whose future at LCR Honda had been uncertain for months.
