He will join Frenchman Stephen Rubini, current Brazilian runner-up, and Guilherme Bresolin – a young man from Rio Grande do Sul who is another new addition to the team.
In MX2 Vitor Borba from Santa Catarina is looking for his second national championship. The miner Bernardo Tibúrcio, current Arena Cross champion (AX2 class), also continues at Honda Racing.
Jeremy Van Horebeek: «Racing dirtbikes has been the best feeling in the world since I was a kid. When I’m on my race bike I feel free and I always enjoy how much fun it is. Racing in Brazil means a lot to me; I’ve had success in the World Championships held here. I love the people and the country. So racing in Brazil with Honda Racing is just amazing.”
The Brazilian Motocross Championship will start on April 6th at Ponta Grossa.
