The deal extends a partnership that first ♒started back in 1995 and means Marc Marquez – plus new team-mate Joan Mir - will race in the familiar Repsol colours for the next two seasons.

Without a🐽 world title since Marquez’s arm injury in early 2020, ‘the goal from 2023 onwards is clear: to be the best in MotoGP again,’ said a team statꦯement.

Repsol will also begin preparing for the 2024 season,﷽ when MotoGP fuel will need to be of a minimum 40% non-fo🅠ssil origin, rising to 100% by 2027.

Koji Watanabe, President of Honda Racing Corporation, said: "It bringsﷺ us great pride to once again continue our collaboration with ꧒Repsol, extending a long and fruitful partnership.

“We are not simply working as sponsor and manufacturer; we aꦯre a true team with a d💝eep level of technical collaboration. With upcoming changes to fuel regulations, having a partner such as Repsol is key.

“Once again, we 🧜will work alongside them to achieve the best possible performance and ꦡresults.

“Together we have celebrated good days and worked together to overcome the bad – wꦰe remain keenly foc🍒used on returning to the top of the World Championship and continuing to be the reference in the fields of technology and competition.”
