The partnership between Marc Marquez and Joan Mir will come to an end in Valencia as the eldest of the spaniards will leave Honda at the end of the season to join Gresini Racing. But the rider from Palma de Mallorca is full of praise for the oldest brother in the Marquez clan.
‘The truth is that our relationship is very good, I’d say he’s the best teammate I’ve ever had, the relationship is very good, we’re all going in the same direction when it comes to developing the bike. We try to find the same things and what’s more, they’re alongside the best rider in the grid’ Mir told Mundo Deportivo.
Before joining Repsol Honda, Joan Mir teamed up with Alex Rins at Suzuki, who is currently at LCR Honda but will be moving to Yamaha in 2024.
