Honda has been facing more difficulties than ever this season and concessions to the constructor – and to Yamaha – have been a hot topic. Today in Malaysia, Joan Mir did not hide his dissatisfaction with the current results and “requested” that this become a reality, recalling what happened in previous years with other brands.
The Spanish rider, who could not finish today’s race, spoke on the matter: ‘I think it’s selfish now that Honda needs concessions, just like they gave them to KTM and Aprilia, now they don’t give them to us, like Yamaha. We need some help to be able to reach the level of the others. With eight Ducatis on track at that level, we need help’.
With Ducatis dominating, it is also important to have this “help”:
– They have the information, what doesn’t work and what can work, but I don’t know if they have found the key or if they are looking for another direction to become the factory they used to be. We have to wait, but these results, no matter how much you want to, are morale killers.
