ASPAR TEAM REDEFINES SPONSORSHIP ARRANGEMENTS The Aspar Team has agreed a deal which will see their sponsorship package rearranged for this season. The new agreement will see all BANKIA logos removed from the team’s motorcycles, pit garage, hospitality units and other Aspar Team elements in the Moto3, Moto2 and MotoGP World Championships after the Spanish Government recently bailed out the banking and financial services group. The vacated space on the team materials will now be occupied by MAPFRE, co-sponsor of the Aspar Team, who will significantly increase their presence on the bikes and rider equipment, as well as the rest of the materials belonging to the team run by Jorge Martínez ‘Aspar’. BANKIA continues to support the “Cuna de Campeones”, the young rider development project giving children between the ages of six and fourteen the opportunity to develop their talent within the world of motorcycle racing.
