Haojue will not start in Mugello

Matt Hoyle's rookie season is getting worse with his Haojue team now announcing that they won't start in the Italian GP this weekend, the Catalunya GP two weeks later is also still in question.
The Chinese manufacturer has a lot of trouble during its first 125cc season with technical issues all around and is generally lacking competitiveness, often failing to even qualify, only to have a mechanical problem in the race. They yet have to finish a race. Engineer Jan Witteveen already left the team.
Given these circumstances the team now decided to save the costs and try to develop the bike further to have more chances at the next GP.
