via Twowheelsblog

With just one week remaining before the start of the 2013 MotoGP World Championship theASPAR Team unveiled the three teams that will be challenging for honours in all three categories in a ceremony at the iconic ‘Casa de la Beneficencia‘ in Valencia. Once again the ASPAR Team will be the biggest single structure in the paddock, competing with two riders in each of the Moto3, Moto2 and MotoGP classes.

In Moto3 the MAPFRE Aspar Team will again run a Kalex chassis, to be ridden by Jonas Folger and Eric Granado. Jonas was the form rider in the second half of last season and with a full year ahead of him together with the MAPFRE Aspar Team he is one of the outstanding candidates for the title. Eric is a Brazilian youngster contesting his debut season and he has already proved to be one of the surprise packages of winter testing.

In Moto2 the ASPAR Team will again be using a chassis made by 2012 title winners Suter, with Nico Terol and Jordi Torres on board. Nico was the 125cc World Champion in 2011 whilst Jordi lifted the Spanish Moto2 title in 2011 and 2012.

In the MotoGP class the POWER ELECTRONICS Aspar Team features the same line-up that produced such strong results in 2012. The Spanish team will once again be backed by the multi-national company POWER ELECTRONICS, with experienced riders Aleix Espargaróand Randy De Puniet in the saddle. The pair were the top two CRT riders in the championship and will again be riding the all-conquering ART machine. So far the POWER ELECTRONICS pairing have set the CRT standard in 2013, dominating preseason with the kind of form they will hope to continue throughout the campaign.
