Thought Honda’s MotoGP situation couldn’t get any worse? At the track where it had last won a race, it did.
The Honda team’s performance at the Circuit of the Americas last weekend was their worst-ever in the premier class, facing intense competition and struggling throughout the races. Despite efforts and changes made to the bike, the results on the track did not reflect those improvements, leaving team manager Alberto Puig concerned. The riders, including Takaaki Nakagami, expressed disappointment and frustration with the bike’s performance, feeling slower than in the previous year. The comparison between lap times from 2023 and 2024 highlighted the struggle the team faced, failing to keep up with their own past achievements. Overall, Honda’s current state in MotoGP seems perplexing and concerning for both the team and fans.
