Honda have struggled to be competitive in WorldSBK for several seasons, dating back to when 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Alvaro Bautista and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Leon Haslam took over as riders of the full fa𝔉ctory Team HRC line-up.

Honda, who are now heading into the new season for thꦫe third consecutive year with Iker Lecuona and Xavi Vierge, have developed a brand new CBR1000RR-R Fireblade. 

• Andrea Iannone ‘living the dream in WorldSBK, Du♏cati my preferred💛 bike’ 
• Axel Bassani ‘sta⛎rting to feel good’ with Ka꧋wasaki, ‘we’re slowly catching Alex Lowes’

But results in testing, along with comments made by Lecuon꧂a aft🍰er Portimao, have suggested the 2024 season could be another very tough one.

But Escamez, who replaces 💃former rider Leon Camier as team manager, is hoping his experience can be vital to Honda’s resurgence.

Former💟ly part of the MotoGP paddock, Escamez told WorldSBK.com: “I will strive to keep the team united and working together towards the same goal.

“I have held various﷽ positions within a team throughout my career, both on the mechanical side and in coordination roles.

“This has given me the opportunity to understand people and their feeling𒁃s, so I want to ensure that everyone is able to give their best for th🍌e team.”

With regard to the Japanese manu🌳facturer’s goals in 2024, challenging for top five finishes is their aim.

WorldSBK h𝐆as arguably never been stronger, and💎 with BMW looking strong particularly in the hands of Toprak Razgatlioglu, Ducati, Yamaha and Kawasaki all showing more potential in testing, achieving those types of results could be very challenging.

“The main challenge is to become competitive with the new bike as soon as possible”, added Escamez. “There are many upda🐎tes across all areas of the machine, so we need to bring it all together and find a base setup that allows our riders to fully exploit the bike's potential.

“The next challen😼ge will be to consistent💃ly compete for top-five positions and secure some podium finishes.

“We are aware that this is a significant challenge, considering the high level of competition in the championship, but we are working tirelessl൩y to achieve tha💜t goal.”
