Repsol ending sponsorship with HRC

Post by KungFooBob »

Crash.net on Friendfaceface are saying the Repsol sponsorship will end this season.

Proper end of an era stuff, my formative bike sport years were spent watching Doohan on a Repsol bike

About half the petrol stations here are Repsol
The Suzuki runs shit on it.

But I buy it for the dirt bikes, coz it's blue and can see the level better through plastic fuel tank.

In GPs Repsol have been synonymous with Honda for yonks. There have been some proper iconic paint schemes in that time. Probably one of the most recognisable after ciggy colours were killed off.
