Marc Marquez to stay in Moto2 in 2012

Marc Marquez will be staying in Moto2 for another season.
The rumors that he would be switching to MotoGP in 2012 in these last couple of months have finally been laid to rest as Emilio Alzamora and Marquez informed the press that he’ll be staying in Moto2 for another season, allowing the 18-year old Spanish sensation another year of experience.

“I’m only 18 and need to gain more experience first.
There is no pressure on me for title this year now I know I have another year,” said Marquez.
Repsol and Honda are carefully grooming Marquez for the big jump, but it will be in a factory team and bike in 2013 and we bet that the rookie rule will be dropped under pressure from the two giants when Marquez could be ready to take away Dani Pedrosa’s long standing place in the team.
