Honda’s Alberto Puig addresses claim of a last-gasp offer to keep Marc Marquez
Honda have denied trying to entice Marc Marquez to stay with a substantial financial offer. Marquez left his lucrative rider contract early to join Ducati and turned down Honda’s reported €100m four-year deal. The Honda team boss vehemently refuted these claims, stating that there was never an offer and that Marquez wanted a competitive bike more than money. Marquez’s move to Ducati has been successful, leading the MotoGP standings despite some costly errors. Honda’s Johann Zarco’s recent victory in the French MotoGP indicates the team’s resurgence.
