Peugeot Motorcycles To Debut on the Moto3 Grid in 2016
Mahindra acquired a 51 per cent stake in Peugeot Motocycles in 2014 and the Mahindra-Peugeot partnership has seen a lot of success when its MGP3O racer took the Riders' and Constructors' titles in the Italian CIV Moto3 championship.
"We are delighted to add a Peugeot Motocycles entry to our Moto3 line-up for 2016 and are looking forward to next season being the biggest and most successful so far for Mahindra Racing," affirmed Ruzbeh Irani, Mahindra Racing Chairman and Mahindra's President (Group Communications & Ethics) and Chief Brand Officer.
The Peugeot MGP3O will share its mechanical DNA with the Mahindra Racing bikes on the grid, but Peugeot Motocycles will contest the series as a Constructor. The addition of the two Peugeot racers further underlines the growing presence of Mahindra in international motorcycle racing. The only Indian constructor in MotoGP will continue to run programmes in the CEV Moto3 Junior World Championship and the Italian CIV series.
