This year’s 125cc World champion Marc Marquez will be making the jump to the Moto2 series and will get his first test with the Monlau Competicion team tomorrow at Jerez.
The 17-year-old has decided to stay with his mentor Emilio Alzamora after receiving several Moto2 offers, but Alzamora has decided to field a single rider team and concentrate his efforts on the Catalan champion.
It’s expected that Marquez be using a Moriwaki, after considering both the Suter and FTR chassis, and the team will have the backing of big name sponsors, Red Bull and Repsol.
