Jeremy McWilliams is set to make a surprise return to the MotoGP series after being named as a rider for the WCM Bimota team for the 2006 season.
Northern Irishman McWilliams is on the provisional entry list released by the FIM, the sport's governing body.
The Belfast-based rider is to be joined on the WCM Bimota team by American unknown Jason Perez.
McWilliams, 41, endured a torrid time on the Stobart Honda in last year's British Superbike Championship.
He is set to become one of four Britons in GPs next season.
