Luca Marini’s decision to go to Repsol Honda has been lambasted as “one of the worst signings in history from a rider” by Neil Hodgson.
Luca Marini is expected to replace Marc Marquez as Repsol Honda’s rider for the 2024 MotoGP season, but his decision to leave VR46 and switch from a Ducati to a struggling Honda has received criticism. Commentators question why Marini would make this move when he is still learning how to ride the Ducati and it has shown improvement throughout the year. They believe he is not fast enough on a Ducati and will not be faster on a Repsol Honda. The current Honda riders have experienced numerous crashes this season, making Marini’s decision seem strange and illogical. Many consider it to be one of the worst signings in MotoGP history. Despite following in his brother Valentino Rossi’s footsteps and becoming a factory rider, Marini will have to settle for a lesser bike.
