Honda have confirmed that they will be racing in Valencia this weekend as a way of paying tribute to Marco Simoncelli.
The 24-year-old lost his life when he was struck by Colin Edwards and Valentino Rossi after a crash in Malaysia earlier this month.
The team had originally planned to attend the meeting but not compete, however boss Fausto Gresini has now revealed that their plans have been altered.
"We made this choice as it is what Marco would have wanted," said Gresini.
"Going out on track at Valencia is definitely the best way to honour him by doing what he most loved to do; ride and experience the world of Moto GP.
"This is why I believe that the best show of affection that we can make to Marco is by lining up our teams and riders for this race."
Hiroshi Aoyama will take part in the Moto GP event.
