Although Honda lags behind the competition in terms of competitiveness, Joan Mir saw some progress during the year but believes that to accelerate evolution, more engineers and… European help are needed.
The Spaniard, former MotoGP world champion with Suzuki, spoke to Crash expressing confidence in the future, stating that time will prove Honda will return to its best.
However, he emphasized the growth and understanding that change is needed in some aspects, and #36 seems to have «the recipe»:
–Certainly I could see many changes [this year]. They [Honda] realized that what they were doing until now worked for another era [of MotoGP]. But this is a completely different story. We need more European help. We need more engineers.
