Marini: Copying Ducati "not the way" to improve Honda MotoGP bike
Marini has joined the factory Honda team to replace Marc Marquez. He brings valuable experience from Ducati, but believes that Honda should not try to replicate Ducati’s style on the RC213V. Marini has struggled with rear tire performance on the Honda, particularly on fresh tires, and sees this as a key area for improvement. Despite his challenges, Marini is optimistic about Honda’s potential and looks forward to testing new parts and enhancing performance during the upcoming Qatar test in February.
