As well as MotoಌGP rule amendments, the Qatar Grand Prix Commission meeting also announced changes for the Moto3 and Moto2 categor𝕴ies from 2014.

While Moto2 will only see a change to the testing regula🔯tions, the engine rules will be changed for the junior Moto3 category to reduce costs and ensure that all rider🔴s with each brand get the same engine specification.

Unꦡlike Moto2, where all competitors use a Honda built-control engine, M💝oto3 has open engine competition...

Moto3 Class - 2014:
Changes to the regulations concerning supply of engines for the Moto3 class were approved. The objective is to reduce the cost of the engine programme fo𓄧r the teams and to ensure that there is equality of performance between engines supplied by the same manufacturer.

With effect from 2014 engines will beღ provided to Championship Organiser by the manufacturers in three batches during the season. The engines will be sealed and distributed randomly by the Technical Director and will become the property of the teams, with no requirement for them to be returned under any "service contract".

When an e🌠ngine has completed the normal cycle of use it will be replaced by another sealed engine and it is anticipated that the six engines will be more than sufficient for the sea🌜son.

At the 💖end of the season the team then owns six engines with only minimal mileage accrued which can be used for testing or sold on. The fixed cost for the engine package is EUR68,000.

The concession to allow timing chain replacement on Honda engines at regular intervals, which invol🍒ves supervised breaking of the engine seals, will be extended until the end of 2014.

With effect from 2015 the maximum revs permitted for Moto3 machines will be reduced from 14,000 RPM to 13,500 RPM and the timing chain replacement concess🍰ion will beဣ cancelled.
