The only champion of the C💙RT MotoGP class, Aleix Espargar🍷o will bid farewell to the Aspar team after Sunday's Valencia finale.

A Pramac Ducati rider in 2010, Espargaro dropped down to Moto2 before signing to ride the Aspar-run A🍸RT in the new privateer MotoGP cate🐭gory.

The Spaniard has boosted his reputation by dominating the class for the past two seasons, and will ✃move to the new Forward Racing Yamaha project for 2014.

"I am really looking forward to racing at home this weekend. It will be a special and emotional weekend for me because it is the end of an important era in my life, being ♕my final ra🌄ce with the Power Electronics Aspar Team," he said.

"I really want to say goodbye to the team with the best possible result. The bike has given us some great res൲ults over the past two years so hopefully we can produce one more.

"Even though we tied up the CRT championship already in Australia we have gone two races without a [c𓂃lass] win now for one reason or another so the objective is clear꧑: we want to win this one and finish the season with a smile.

"It is quite a tight circuit and I thi♚nk that should suit us so we will be doing everything we can to make the most of our advantage and score a top result."

Nicky Hayden is confirmed as𓃲 joining the new Aspar Honda project, with his team-mate yet to be announced. Hiroshi A🧜oyama is tipped to get the second seat, but Espargaro's present team-mate Randy de Puniet has not yet been officially ruled out.

The Frenchman, who has been combining his Aspar race duties with Suzuki development work, hea𓄧ds to Valencia with a real chance of taking second in the CRT standings from Colin Edwards.

"I really like Valencia and it has been a good circuit for me in the past," said de Puniet. "We are in good form, my feel𒈔ing with the bike over the past two races♎ has been good and I hope this continues through to this Sunday.

"If we keep working in the same way we have recently then I am sure we can end the season with a good result, which is important. Normally I prefer faster circuits but there are some sections of this track that I really like and I ꦓam sure our bike will adapt we🐟ll.

"The objective is to finish the races as the top CRT and hopefully score four more points than Colin Edwards to finish🎉 ahead of him as runner-up in the CRT championship."
