Honda announce 2017 factory MXGP line-up
Nel corso della tradizionale conferenza stampa tenutosi ieri sera al EICMA a Milano, Italia, il team HRC ha presentato la sua line-up Factory per il 2017 FIM Motocross World Championship, MXGP, ed una evoluzione della struttura del team.
Il Team HRC schiererà due moto nella categoria MXGP, dove il Campione del Mondo Tim Gajser e Evgeny Bobryshev continueranno la stagione sul nuovo 2017 Honda CRF450RW.
In una modifica alla struttura del team, Bobryshev si sposterà sotto il tendone della squadra che nel 2016 è stata chiamata Honda Gariboldi Racing. Dal 2017, il Campione Mondiale, della squadra italiana sarà rinominata team HRC, e sarà responsabile per il programma dei lavori per le moto 450cc guidate da Gajser e Bobryshev.
Questa ultima versione della Honda CRF è già vincitrice, sia per mano di Gajser alla Riders SMX ‘e Manufacturers’ Cup in Germania e negli Stati Uniti con la nuova firma di Ken Roczen al Monster Energy CUP All-Star. In entrambi i casi, è stata la prima gara di ogni pilota sulla nuova moto.
La FIM Motocross World Championship 2017 prende il via con il GP del Qatar, Losail, unica gara notturna della stagione, il 25 febbraio.
Factory line-up della Honda per il FIM Motocross World Championship 2017:

Honda announce 2017 factory MXGP line-up
During the traditional motorsport announcement press conference held last night at EICMA in Milan, Italy, Team HRC presented its factory line-up for the 2017 FIM Motocross World Championship, MXGP, and an evolution of team structure.
Team HRC will field two works entries in the MXGP category, where reigning World Champion Tim Gajser and Evgeny Bobryshev will continue to campaign the all-new 2017 Honda CRF450RW.
In a change to team structure, Bobryshev will move under the awning of the team that in 2016 was called Honda Gariboldi Racing. From 2017, the World Championship-winning Italian squad will be renamed Team HRC, and will be responsible for the works programme for the 450cc machines ridden by Gajser and Bobryshev.
This latest iteration of the Honda CRF is already a race winner, both at the hands of Gajser at the season-closing SMX Riders’ and Manufacturers’ Cup in Germany and in the USA with new signing Ken Roczen at the all-star Monster Energy Cup. In both instances, it was in each rider’s first race on the new machine, too.
The 2017 FIM Motocross World Championship gets underway with the MXGP of Qatar, Losail, the season’s only night race, on 25 February.
