Mahindra Opt Out of Moto3
INDIA’S ONLY TEAM IN THE MOTO3 WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP, MAHINDRA Racing, has announced its withdrawal from the competition at the end of the current season. With 13 podium finishes, including three wins in the previous season, the Indian team has done us proud during its comparatively short stint at the world level.
Despite seven years of experience in the Moto3 World Championship, Mahindra Racing has revealed that they will be redirecting their energies towards the FIA Formula E Championship. Following a win in Berlin, they are currently third on the leader board in the latter. Mahindra explain that this move is pivotal to the brand’s aspirations of becoming a world leader in the field of electric mobility.
The Mahindra MGP3O will continue to participate in the Moto3 World Championship until the end of the 2017 season. Mahindra Racing will also continue to provide support to the Aspar team and its two customer teams, CIP and Peugeot Saxoprint.
