In his second year with Repsol Honda in MotoGP, Joan Mir has a new chief mechanic. No more, no less, than Santi Hernández, who has worked with Marc Márquez in recent seasons.
The rider from Palma de Mallorca has already had six days of track work with the engineer and his renewed team, ensuring that he had positive sensations and good chemistry:
– Very good. We fit in very well with the whole team from the first moment. We were able to be together in Sepang and Valencia, but we spent several days in Sepang. We were able to get to know each other, see a little bit how they work. I think we share a very similar way of working and everything is coming out very naturally. That is very positive.
