Joan Mir says he needs to find more consistency on the Honda before he can think about winning MotoGP races.
Honda’s decline in MotoGP started earlier, but by October 2025, they had successfully lifted themselves out of the slump they were in until 2024. Joan Mir has been the rider benefiting the most from Honda’s 2025 improvements, with two podium finishes during MotoGP’s Asian tour.
Mir attributed his recent success to setup changes that improved front-end confidence, though grip remains a challenge on the RC213V. Despite recent progress and podium finishes, Mir remains cautious about setting expectations for Honda to win again.
Mir emphasized the importance of consolidating podium finishes, improving bike stability, and enhancing grip before aiming for victories. He acknowledged the difficulty of continuous improvement but expressed confidence in Honda’s engineering capabilities and efforts to return to the top of MotoGP.
