MotoGP Cost Cut and Performance Plan

Tweet


Technical Director MotoGP Mike Webb, also known as 2012 MotoGP race director, told that there were a plan of rev limit to reducing cost of MotoGP. This issue is also expected to reduce big discrepancy performance between factory team and CRT team.
Webb was told MCN, quoted from MCN website, "At the moment we're relying on fuel capacity as a performance limit. But the factories are getting very, very good at running lean engines, so we've got extremely fast motorcycles.
"The factories will still make the best and fastest motorcycles but it helps the privateers to get somewhere a little bit closer and levels the playing field. I think we need a rev limit.”
“If you want to reduce costs then one way could be simply to reduce the rpm but that will impact on each manufacturer in a different way depending on the technology they use.
"We need to wait a while to see whether that will be introduced or not and what the level will be.”
