Honda’s diffꦬiculties over the last few seasons have been well documented, but with Ma𒁏rini and Johann Zarco (LCR Honda) moving to the Japanese brand, new ideas could be just what Honda needs.

“It is another thrilling mil🐈estone in the journey I have 🧸been on since the end of last year. Every time we work together as a team we are able to find something and make more steps forward.
“This first weekend will give us the opportunity to finalise some det⛎ails from the test and also understand better how to work during a race weekend together.
“We have work to do, and I am ea🅘ger to start it as a factory Honda rider.”
