# Moto2

Moto2 (voorheen de 250cc-klasse) is een wegraceklasse in de motorsport. In deze klasse wordt gestreden om de wereldtitel in het FIM wereldkampioenschap wegrace.

## Geschiedenis

In 1949 stelde de FIM een officieel wereldkampioenschap in. De klassen waarbij hier een wereldtitel te verdienen was, waren 125 cc, 250 cc, 350 cc, 500 cc en de Zijspanklasse.
De klasse 250 cc stond op het programma van het wereldkampioenschap wegrace van 1949 tot 2009. In 2010 werd de 250cc-klasse vervangen door de Moto2. De veranderingen maken het verschil tussen de MotoGP en onderliggende klasse kleiner.

## Materiaal

Alle teams beschikken over hetzelfde materiaal. De motorfietsen worden sinds het seizoen 2018-2019 alle voorzien van een drie-cilinder viertakt Triumph motor van 765 cc. Deze motoren leveren 136 pk (100 kW).
