Repsol Honda Team geared up for Styrian GP this weekend

Repsol Honda Team geared up for Styrian GP this weekend

Marc Marquez and Pol Espargaro are all set to improve their personal best in Red Bull Ring this weekend.

Repsol Honda Team is excited to create new records in the Styrian GP.

The long summer break is coming to an end and Round 10 of the 2021 MotoGP World Championship will be resuming this weekend with the Styrian Grand Prix.

Just like the 2020 season, the Red Bull Ring in Spielberg, Austria, will host two races after revisions to the 2021 calendar. The Michelin Grand Prix of Styria will see racing resume after a five-week hiatus for the mid-season break and the entirety of the Repsol Honda Team are ready to get back out on track. Red Bull Ring’s 4.3-kilometer layout has seen some titanic battles since 2016 and both Marc Marquez and Pol Espargaro are working to be in the mix once again.

Top gun Marc Marquez will be making a comeback to the Austrian track for the first time since 2019. He missed out on the double-header there in 2020. The Spaniard has yet to secure victory in the Red Bull Ring, only finishing second on three occasions from 2017 to 2019. He has been recuperating at home focusing on full fitness.

Pol Espargaro has bitter-sweet memories of the Austrian circuit from 2020. He fought for victory until the final corner after starting on pole position. Although he had to ultimately settle for third, Espargaro clearly has pace around the Red Bull Ring. Like his Repsol Honda Team team-mate, Espargaro has spent much of the break training with multiple days on the Honda CBR 1000RR-R Fireblade SP to be prepared for the final half of the year.

Marc Marquez (Repsol Honda Team)- What to Expect?

“I’ve enjoyed the summer break; I was able to relax with friends and family and enjoy it. It was good not just for the mind, but also for the body and I am feeling better and stronger. I’ve been able to increase my training, spending more time on bikes and even returning to riding motocross – which I am enjoying a lot! But we know the situation on track will still not be simple and we have to keep working and stay focused. I’m looking forward to riding my Honda RC213V again and having full grandstands again will be incredible.”

Pol Espargaro (Repsol Honda Team)- What to Expect?

“Let’s ride! It has been a long time away from the track. I am looking forward to returning to riding my Honda again. We’ve been training hard over the whole summer. I am fully prepared physically for the final end of the year. The Red Bull Ring is a unique circuit with a lot of hard braking and accelerating. I think it can suit us. It looks like we will have full grandstands for the first time in Austria. I am so excited to see all the fans. Hopefully, we can see more people at more circuits soon. We didn’t have the easiest start to the season, but it’s time to keep our focus and show the potential we know we have.”
