After Johann Zarco’s presentation, it was Takaaki Nakagami’s turn to be presented by LCR Honda for the 2024 MotoGP season. For sponsorship reasons, the Japanese rider will be sporting the colors of LCR Honda Idemitsu, as has been the case since he entered the premier class.
This will be the seventh season for the Japanese rider. After his best campaign in 2020, both Nakagami and Honda have been losing competitiveness, as evidenced by the 18th place finishes in the championships of 2022 and 2023.
Now, with no shortage of competition for his position, the Asian rider will have to show his worth, also contributing to the manufacturer’s improvements. His RC213V will be painted in white and red, with some details in gold, in a revised decoration displaying the colors in slightly different ways compared to last year.
