Luca Marini has explained why a possible switch to Repsol Honda is “complicated”.
The Mooney VR46 rider, Luca Marini, was considered as a potential replacement for Marc Marquez in the 2024 MotoGP rider line-up. He had discussions with Alberto Puig, the Repsol Honda team manager, but ultimately, it didn’t work out. Marini expressed his satisfaction at being considered and stated that his goal is to join a factory team and help develop the bike to achieve victory. However, due to his existing contract, the situation is complex. Marini emphasized the importance of finishing the remaining races well before focusing on the future. His teammate, Marco Bezzecchi, also chose to stay with the VR46 team instead of moving to Pramac Ducati for a more updated bike. Meanwhile, Honda continues its search for a replacement for Marquez, which is happening late in the year.
