Alex Marquez was against Honda's call to move him out of its factory MotoGP team to LCR before his rookie season began back in 2020 Full story ⬇️
Marquez was the only Honda rider to get the difficult bike to the podium in 2020, and struggled across the next two seasons aboard his LCR-run RC213V.
He will now join Gresini Ducati in 2023, with the Spaniard admitting after his first test on the Desmosedici in Valencia in November thatReflecting on his time at Honda, Marquez says the manufacturer’s decision to move him to LCR was “a bit hard for me” and feels like he was underutilised by the Japanese marque during his stint there.
“Honestly, in that moment, I did not really agree with that decision,” he replied when asked about his LCR move.“That decision was a little bit hard for me, and I didn’t feel productive inside LCR for Honda – not for the team, for Honda.“At that moment, it was hard for me, but I needed to accept. “I learned a lot, I’m grateful to Honda, they gave the opportunity to me. The past we cannot change, we can just look to the future.”Despite this, Marquez holds no grudges against Honda and says his relationship with the manufacturer will “always be great”.“It’s not the same in the satellite team and the factory team. OK, your contract can be factory but it’s not exactly the same.
