The Valencia circuit holds good memories for Joan Mir, as the rider himself recalled in the preview of the last round of the world championship. The Honda rider will close his first season with the team looking to continue improving on the results obtained in the last GP.
‘A long season comes to an end in Valencia, a day of rest and then the next season begins. In Qatar, we managed to improve on Sunday, which helped me gain confidence, so the goal is to continue in this direction after the last race,’ said the 26-year-old rider in a team statement, before recalling some of the good memories that the Valencia track brings to him:
– The track holds good memories for me, not only was it the scene of my first MotoGP victory, but also where I won the title in 2020. The conditions at the end of this year will be a bit tricky, especially in the morning, so we have to be careful. We keep working.’
