Honda’s newest MotoGP signing Diogo Moreira has hinted at the number he will use in his rookie season in 2026, but has kept it a secret until the Valencia test. Moreira, a Moto2 superstar, signed a three-year contract with LCR Honda to move up to MotoGP next season. He is currently just nine points behind the championship leader in Moto2 with four rounds to go. Moreira expressed his excitement about stepping into MotoGP and emphasized the importance of understanding the new bike and category. He mentioned that next year will be a big challenge, especially with the support of his family and friends in Brazil. Although he cannot use his Moto2 number, No.10, in MotoGP, Moreira has already chosen a significant Brazilian number for his debut but has yet to reveal it. It is speculated that he might opt for the No.4, a number with historical significance in Brazil, as used by Alex Barros in his successful MotoGP career.
