After spending the first three seasons of his career at Ducati, Luca Marini moves to Repsol Honda in MotoGP this year. The tests this week in Sepang allowed him to get to know the new bike better.
The Italian was asked by the press about the biggest difference between the RC213V and the Desmosedici GP, responding: ‘It’s the way to make the rear tire work. It’s the complete opposite. Ducati is on one side and Honda is on the other‘.
These comments find echo in Marc Márquez, who went the opposite way – from Repsol Honda to a Gresini Ducati – as we have already reported in this article.
