After Repsol Honda’s MotoGP team presentation at Sepang at the end of January and the official Honda Racing presentation in Tokyo February 3rd, it was now sponsor Repsol’s turn to do their bit.
The Spanish petroleum giant officially launched their 2012 campaign with a complete team presentation of the riders that will be under the Repsol banner.
The event took place yesterday evening at a packed Palacio de Deportes in Madrid ahead of the fourth round of the FIM X-Trial World Championship.
Repsol presented Casey Stoner, Dani Pedrosa (MotoGP), Marc Márquez (Moto2), Maverick Viñales, Miguel Oliveira, Álex Rins (Moto3), Álex Márquez, María Herrera, Francesco Bagnaia, Lorenzo Baldassarri (Campeonato de España de Velocidad), Toni Bou and Takahisa Fujinami (Trial).
“This is really fantastic.
I have been riding for a Spanish team in Repsol and developing as a rider in Spain was a very special experience for me.
To be surrounded by people in this event is somewhere that I have always wanted to be.
This is a great place for a presentation,” said Casey Stoner.
“I am very happy to be here at the Repsol riders presentation,” said Pedrosa.
“I really enjoy these events, because the people here give you a lot of support and a warm reception.
It is also nice to be in the same place as the other Repsol riders —including the Trial competitors whom we don’t see so often.
We hope that this is the start of a good season for everyone.
