Luca Marini and Johann Zarco are the riders that have come across from Ducati, but a quick fix does not appear to be in store, even though Marini loo☂ked good at the post-season test in Valencia.
As a result of their poor results, Honda, along with Yamaha will benefi🍰t from extra testing as part of the concession s🌟ystem.
Both manufacturers will also be allowed to develop their engine while thꦓe other three bran♏ds' development will be frozen.
Honda wants to take full advantage of this opportunity by conducting 22 private tests, 💮; report.
Honda, who currently has Stefan Bra🗹dl leading their test program, also wants to employ a second full-time MotoGP test rider in order to carry out such demands.
Bradl is a regular when it comes ♕to wildcard appearances and the German could be set for up to five race weekends, alongside his testing duties.
Thus signing a second test rider will be of great importance to Honda, as Joan Mir and Marini, both of whom are eligible to take part in as many test🐓s as they want, will be unable to do so due to their racing commitment.
Zarco and Takaaki Nakagami could al🐷so test for Honda but Motorspo♓rt.com are reporting that there are no plans for them to take on added testing, as of now.
