MotoGP Silverstone: Iker Lecuona: MotoGP or WorldSBK in 2024? "Honda will choose for me"

Lecuona, currently a factory H🤡onda WorldSBK rider, will get another chance to 🌸impress HRC when he replaces the injured Rins at LCR during this weekend’s British MotoGP.
It will be Lecuona’s third MotoGP appearanꦰce for Honda since leavi🍨ng KTM at the end of 2021.
Although he is yet to score points on the RCV, the young Spaniard feels his impres♍sive pace for Repsol Honda before a technical failure at Assen showed his♔ potential.

“At Assen it was like ‘OK, maybe it's time to push a bit𝓡 more and try to feel bit more the limit’ and during the race I was P11-P10 when the bike broke, at half race, with a really good pace,” Lecuona said.
“So this helped me to show my potential to Honda and [with Rins continuing his recover from aꦿ broken leg] they wanted to give me another chance in MotoGP.
“We will see for the future. Honestly, I cannot say nothing [a💖bout 2024]. All I can say is that I want to stay in Honda becauseไ I'm really happy here.
“I feel that I am a factory rider, and for th♋is I race in three different championships in the🍷 same year, quite a busy year! But we will see what happens in future.”
Lecuona underlined thaꦿt he will go wherever Honda decides to place him🉐 next season.
“I'm interested [in LCR] with Honda but if I'm honest… [Honda] will choose for me in the end. I don't think I can say ‘now I prefer to go to MotoGP’. If [Honda] needs help here, maybe I can come here. If [Honda] still needs help in Superbike because [Honda] finds another rider to replace Rins, 🦄OK, I agree because I want to stay with Honda.
“We will see after t💝his weekend and then maybe I can say something.”
