Zarco: Taking over from Marquez at Repsol Honda “would make sense, but…”
The recent agreement between the Frenchman and HRC suggests that Zarco may take over Alex Rins’ LCR ride. However, this could pose a problem for LCR’s sponsorship plans, which involve having Zarco on the team. Other contenders, such as Miguel Oliveira and Maverick Vinales, are also rumored to be on Honda’s shortlist for the Repsol seat. Zarco expressed his willingness to wait for Honda’s decision and acknowledged that being a factory rider would be prestigious. He also mentioned that he took a risk by leaving Ducati and signing with Honda earlier. The 33-year-old wasn’t surprised that Honda is considering other riders, as they need to have four riders for next year. Nevertheless, Zarco believes that being a factory rider would be a great opportunity.
