Hottest news/rumour is Triumph to replace Honda as engine supplier from 2019 for Moto 2.
British manufacturer Triumph are strongly rumoured to be set to take over from Honda as the official engine supplier of MotoGP’s intermediate Moto2 class from the 2019 season onwards, in a stunning deal that has come as a huge surprise within the Grand Prix paddock.
If the deal is finalised it will be huge news for the British industry, Triumph will supply their triple engines from the Street Triple as a replacement for the Honda CBR600RR powerplants that have been exclusively used by the championship since it’s inauguration in 2011.
The move would be the perfect entry into premiere class racing for the notoriously anti-racing Triumph, by giving them an opportunity for exposure at the highest level in return for minimal financial costs and low risk.
It would also mark the first British engine manufacturer involvement in Grand Prix racing in decades, with the last win coming an incredible 48 years ago when Godfrey Nash won the 1969 Yugoslavian Grand Prix for Norton.
The deal would see them supply around 200 engines to the class, similar to what Honda currently supply, plus the dedicated support needed to refresh them after every three races.
Honda have stopped producing as of 2016 the CBR600RR, so does make sense that it would pull out at some point.
