Honda is determined to achieve success in the World Superbike Championship and has undergone a significant restructuring in the team, including a change in team director, with Leon Camier leaving after three seasons. Tom Jojic is the new chief mechanic for Iker Lecuona
After this week’s tests at Portimão, Camier explained the changes in an interview with the championship’s official website: ‘Basically, we made some changes at the end of this year as one of my last jobs as team manager. We’ve tried to improve the technical side of the team, to bring in people with some more experience and a different background. We’ve added a few staff to try and help behind the scenes as well, with technical support for the crew chiefs’.
The Briton then spoke about what is intended with the restructuring: ‘The goal is to try to improve in every area; not just the bike, we also need to try and improve the team on the technical side. This is something I’ve been working on in the last months. I think the team will be stronger next year. I think, in general, the team will be better. Hopefully the bike can make a good step and hopefully we can have some results’.
