Alberto Puig spoke to MotoGP.com about HRC’s development process and the expectations the Japanese brand has for the future.
To follow this path, a collaboration between the F1 team and the MotoGP team has also been set up to develop the RC213V: “It’s a process,” Puig added. ‘Of course, at the moment, we’d prefer to be at the front. But things are what they are. We’ll keep trying.’
Puig then went on to explain, in practice, what the priority is for the bike’s handling: “To seek greater contact with the asphalt from the rear wheel when entering and exiting corners.
Then a reference to Honda’s philosophy: ‘People know Honda. We’re not going to stop until we reach the goal. We hope to see more progress after the summer, in the second half of the season. That’s our hope and it’s reasonable to believe in it.’
