P1racenews AI automatic summary:
Fermin Aldeguer says Repsol Honda have called about its vacant MotoGP seat as they remain the only factory team yet to confirm their full 2024 line-up.
After winning his second Moto2 race in Thailand, the timing couldn’t have been better for the rider to impress Honda, who are in search of a replacement for Marc Marquez. The 18-year-old’s victory has put him in contention for a MotoGP ride with the factory Honda team. Joan Mir, who is already a MotoGP champion, will be the face of Repsol Honda, taking over from Marquez who will be joining Gresini Ducati. Although there is uncertainty about Honda’s plans, Aldeguer is hopeful as they have reached out to him. Despite only being in Moto2 for two seasons, Aldeguer feels ready to take the step up to MotoGP and is waiting for the best opportunity. Miguel Oliveira is Honda’s first choice, but if a deal proves difficult, Di Giannantonio and Aldeguer are realistic options. A decision could be made this weekend or in Qatar.
