      Ducati's Jerez test with Michele Pirro and Franco Battani is a washout with incessant rain. General Manager of Ducati Corse Bernhard Gobmeier believes that even though the test was a washout some direction has been found for Chassis and electronics.

          Mahindra launches its 2013 Moto3 motorcycle at its headquarters in Mumbai. Also the two new riders for Mahindra were introduced. 26 year old Efren Vazquez and 18 year old Miguel Olivera. A good mix of youth and experience. The company has tied up with Suter to run their bikes this year. Vazquez was 10th in the Championship last year, while Olivera was 8th.

          - said Vazquez

          - said Oliveira.

              I don't know, I checked the poll on crash.net and around 70% voted that they didn't like it. I somehow have a different opinion.

              Though it's not that classy as the earlier paint job, but I found this one as an eye pleaser. There is one thing I noticed. Last year Yamaha and Ducati went for majority white. This year I guess Honda is the one holding majority white, while Ducati and Yamaha (Expected) are sticking to majority of corporate colors on the livery.
              Just because you haven't seen it doesnt mean its impossible...expect the unexpected.

                  Yes even I did not like the paint job they would have retained the old color with minor changes

                        I feel this will look good in motion, whatever I'm a big fan of the "blue" bikes too and have all the more reason to be this season !

                        These guys are going to do just this all season, pushing each other and in the process give the guys in Blue a tough time. I don't see any reason why Marquez is gonna take time to learn, we can expect him to be with the top guys from round 5 latest or am I wishing too much . Lets wait and watch !

                            Is this going to be Hayden's year. Or will he continue to struggle like the last four. Del Torchio has high hopes from Hayden as he enters his fifth year as a Ducati rider and his first year as lead rider -

                              Time has to tell that by mid of next season or probably by end of the season we can know the answer for this

                              Exactly the same what Stoner and Dani gave Jorge these two seasons.... with Doctor's come back to Team Blue we can expect the same pressure in Repsol Honda's garage....
                              I believe Marquez will show his speed in a couple of rounds when he gets used to the bike

                                With the way Marc Marquez puts his bike into the corner (Senna's style!), he going to cause a lot of trouble for the top dogs very soon. Even Sic had this ability but, Marquez is much fiercer and clinical in his approach.

                                Read in motomatters that the white (and red) in Repsol Honda bikes represent the Japanese flag. Although it doesn't look as beautiful as its predecessor, some sections are very impressive especially the tail/exhaust and those white lines on the side panels below the seat.

                                Edit: From motomatters again! Somebody pointed out the difference in the position of the ducts on the fairing of two bikes. Take "REPSOL" for reference.
