We don’t think this will come as a particularly big shock to anyone but Honda Racing Corporation (HRC) have officially announced this morning a key part of their plans for 2013 and 2014.
HRC have said Marc Márquez will join forces with Dani Pedrosa in the Repsol Honda Team as of next season.
HRC are calling the lineup a ‘dream team’, bringing together Pedrosa’s premier class experience and Márquez’ ;youth and potential’. Márquez moves up to MotoGP from Moto2 for 2013.
Both riders have achieved success since debuting in the World Championship with the backing of Repsol. Dani Pedrosa contested his first 125cc season at the age of fifteen and has eleven seasons under his belt representing the energy company. Marc Márquez debuted in 2008, also aged fifteen, and has spent five fruitful years as a Repsol rider on the world stage.
