Honda and Yamaha are partaking in a private test at Mugello on Wednesday, the next small step in their re🍌covery.

The Japanese manufacturers are permitted add🌟itiona🐬l test days as part of the 2024 MotoGP concessions rules.

After the French ♚MotoGP, they have headed to the Italian circuit which will host a round of the MotoGP championship later this month for a day of development.

Riders taking part are Repsol Honda’s Luca Marini and Joan Mir and LCR Honda’s Johann Zarco and Taka👍aki Nakagami.

Yamahaꦇ’s Fabio Quartararo and Alex Rins a♒re also on track.

Honda’s test rider ꦉStefan Bradl and Yamaha’s test rider Cal Crutchlow will j꧋oin them at Mugello.

April🎶ia test rider Lorenzo Savadori will also be on track.

It is another crucial day for the Japanese manufacturers to work on their misfirဣing machines before back-to-back race weekends at Barcelona (May 24-26) and Mugello (May 31-June 2).

Rins said about his ongoing problems in Le Mans: “When I was riding alone, 🎉it was with the problems that we had all weekend; problems to stop the bike on brakes and a lot of slide going into the corners.”

Nakagami tried a modified⛎ swingarm in Le Mans at the weeke🔴nd. Zarco insists that rear grip is their problem.

Zarco warned: “But theꦑre is a bigger problem, like from the base of the bike, from the heart of the bike. Okay, the heart is the engine and I don't mean it's the engine, but I mean the DNA of the bike must change to give us a second breath.”

Honda’s Mir made pr⛄ogress with his race pace in Le Mans.

“It was great to be able to make another step 𓂃with the setting and have a good pace in the race,” he said.

Marini cited a lack of turning and acce🌞leration with his RC213V.
