Will Diogo Moreira remain at LCR or move to the factory HRC team for MotoGP 2027?
Diogo Moreira’s spot on the 2027 MotoGP grid seems secure, but the team he will ride for remains undecided.
The Moto2 champ made the move to MotoGP with a ‘multi-year’ Honda deal at LCR, with potential to switch to the factory HRC squad next year.
HRC’s current riders Joan Mir and Luca Marini are likely on their way out, to be replaced by Fabio Quartararo and rookie David Alonso.
Quartararo is expected to be HRC’s new star, raising questions on whether Alonso or Moreira will secure the other factory Honda seat.
Despite Moreira’s recent strong showings and Alonso’s rookie status, Honda holds the final say in their selection process.
Moreira could potentially partner with Quartararo, while Alonso might find a place at LCR next to Zarco.
As the decision lies with Honda, the situation remains uncertain, and Moreira could be among the first to test the 850cc machine at the upcoming Brno post-race test.
