🗣️'It’s not going to be possible to turn things from night to day.' There appears to be no quick fix for HRC_MotoGP ⬇️
Honda MotoGP team manager Alberto Puig is concerned at the timeframe needed to improve its underperforming bike and fears “to fix it in two months will not be easy”.As MotoGP enters its six-week summer break, Honda is looking to solve its MotoGP crisis with three of its riders out injured and a bike which is at the back of the field alongside fellow Japanese manufacturer strugglers Yamaha.
With a severely reduced rider force to lead development, and a change of philosophy at odds with HRC bosses“It’s not a good moment when you have three riders in and out of hospital, and the problems we are facing lately, it’s not going to be possible to turn things from night to day,” Puig said. Honda has seen its European factory rivals all jump ahead with MotoGP bike development over the last couple of years, with Ducati currently dominating from KTM and Aprilia, but Puig says adopting the approach by its competition hasn’t been a ploy its Japanese management are comfortable with.
