When Marc Marquez departs for Gresini Ducati at the end of next month, Takaaki Nakagami will take over as Honda’s most experienced RC213V rider.
That compares with just one year of Honda experience for Marquez’s current team-mate Joan Mir and three Honda appearances, in 2019, for Nakagami’s proposed future team-mate Johann Zarco. The #93’s replacement is yet to be announced.
With five rounds to go, there is currently no Honda rider in the top 15 of the world championship standings.“I want to help for the development and hopefully HRC listen more to the comments of more riders. Not only Factory team, maybe more LCR team.“If we can help, if we can have more responsibilities, it will be more than nice!”
Nakagami, the only Honda rider not to miss races due to injuries this year, starts the final five rounds of the season 18th in the world championship, four points behind team-mate Rins. “So in both cases, it looked like a risk, but of course, the high risk was the soft compound. But the soft gives more confidence and I knew that from the beginning of the race, I am able to attack.The Japanese added: “It was really difficult to stop the bike and the rear tyre performance had a huge drop. So at the end was really difficult to manage on the bike.
