Ahead of the British GP at Silverstone this weekend, Repsol Honda MotoGP riders Dani Pedrosa and Marc Marquez visited Honda’s European Head Office in Berkshire, UK, allowing Honda associates to have the opportunity to meet the riders, obtain their autographs and have photos taken with them.
During the event, associates were also able to challenge the riders to a race with remote controlled racing bikes around a mini lap of Silverstone. Pedrosa and Marquez took part in a Question and Answer session before having their picture taken with the full range of Repsol livery motorcycles – NSC50R, CBR125R, CBR250R, CBR600RR and CBR1000RR.
The two world champions commented on their visit:
Dani Pedrosa, triple world champion: “It was great to visit the European Head Office and meet so many Honda associates and I hope to put on a good show for them this weekend at Silverstone!”
Marc Marquez, double world champion: “We’ve had a great day meeting the Honda staff and I know we’ll have all their support for the race and hope to make it another successful weekend”
