Héctor Faubel

Héctor Faubel Rojí (born 10 August 1983, in Llíria, Valencia, Spain) is a former professional motorcycle road racer.

After finishing 2006 strongly[1] he was considered a favourite for the 2007 125cc title, during which he battled with eventual world champion Gábor Talmácsi.

Faubel meanwhile dragged the problems of the previous year and only a week before he managed to gain a foothold in the Marc VDS Racing Team led by Michael Bartholemy.

He returns to the podium in several Grands prix, and even manages to re-savor a victory in the World Championship of Motorcycling at the German GP, with the anecdote that the Frenchman Johann Zarco entered on a par with him, but when Faubel did Fast return in less time than the Derbi driver, the commissioners awarded him the victory.

He fails to match the results of the previous season, and in addition to Bankia's lack of sponsorship in the Aspar team they decide to replace Faubel with Luca Amato from the Aragon GP.
