P1racenews AI automatic summary:
Fabio di Giannantonio and Miguel Oliveira appeared to be Honda’s two likeliest contenders for their spare 2024 MotoGP seat, but something has changed.
Honda’s options to replace Marc Marquez for the Thailand MotoGP have narrowed down. Miguel Oliveira, from RNF, confirmed that there hasn’t been much progress in talks about him moving teams. Similarly, there are no ongoing discussions with Honda. The stumbling block seems to be Oliveira’s request for a three-year contract, while Honda is offering only one year. While Aprilia’s Maverick Vinales and Aleix Espargaro were initially considered, serious talks never materialized. As a result, Gresini Ducati rider di Giannantonio is now a major option. However, he has no updates on his future yet and hopes that his recent impressive performances will help find him a seat for next year.
