Repsol YPF

On Saturday 3rd March, Madrid will host the presentation of the Repsol team as a prelude to the Madrid Indoor Trial event, a round in the 2012 World X-Trial Championship that is led by the Repsol rider Toni Bou. The Palacio de los Deportes in the Spanish capital is the venue that will see an afternoon filled with spectacle and motorbike passion with all the team members participating.

The circuit of Jerez was the venue for the second practice sessions of the year in Moto3, and the Repsol riders Maverick Viñales, Miguel Oliveira and Álex Márquez, continued their adaptation to their new bikes for the 2012 season. They were always amongst the fastest over three intensive days of work, and got better day by day.

Maverick Viñales, Miguel Oliveira and Alex Márquez continue with their intense pre-season work this week in Jerez. The Repsol riders` objective in these sessions is to get more experience on their new bikes. The good weather at the track near Cadiz is only spoilt by strong winds, something that is complicating their work.

While waiting to get back on his Moto2 bike Marc Márquez is working flat out to prepare himself physically for the 2012 season. The Repsol rider is continuing with his recuperation after the latest operation on his -eye; riding a motocross bike and concentrating 100% on preparing himself during the pre-season alongside his team and his physiotherapist far from the racing circuits.
