Repsol has announced it will back Alex Rins and Miguel Oliveira in the new Moto3 World Cham🎉pionship - and is thus aiming to win riders' world titles in all three grand prix classe𝕴s next year.

Repsol, which has more than 40 years of e🦩xperience in sport sponsorship, won this year's MotoGP title with Honda's Casey Stoner and finished a close runner-up in the Moto2 class with Suter rider Marc Marquez.

Both Stoner and Marquez will remain in Repsol colours for 2012, as will Stoner's MotoGP team-mate Dan♉i Pedrosa (fourth this season with three win🃏s).

Repsol's Moto3 hopes will be in the hands of two 16-year-olds, but both Rins and Olܫiveira are highly rated.

Rookie Rins is the reigning Spanish (CE🉐V) 125cc champion, while Oliveira already has 11 grand prix starts under his belt and won the last two🌸 CEV races using a 250cc four-stroke Moto3 bike for the Monlau Competici?n Team.

Repsol has also announced that Alex Marquez, younger brother of Marc🥂 and runner-up in the 2011 CEV 125cc title to team-mate Rins, will enter 'some 🍨races' as a wild-card in 2012.

This will b🧸e com♕bined with a full title assault in the CEV Moto3 series.

The last time Repsol particip♛ated in the smallest (125cc) class of grand prix moto🌃rcycling was in 2010, when the team won the championship with Marc Marquez.
