As the Motogp season enters it’s second half, three of the factory seats are already taken.

Speaking about his contract being extended, he said, “I’m very happy to be able to announce my renewal with the Repsol Honda Team, and grateful to Honda for the trust they have shown in me for a further two years,” Pedrosa said. “It’s the best way for me to continue in my racing career, together with the company I was with in my very first race.
