Rumors of Pol Espargaro switch from KTM to Repsol-Honda have been around for a while and has now been officially confirmed. This results in further driver changes.
The 29-year-old Catalan will get the place in the Honda factory team next to Marc Marquez in 2021. A two-year contract was signed
Alex Marquez lost his place in the factory team before he could even drive his first race in the premier class. He will drive for the Honda LCR satellite team next season. He also got a two-year contract.
Alex Marquez: “I am very proud to announce my renewal with Honda Racing Corporation. HRC gave me the opportunity to get into MotoGP. And I’m happy to be part of the LCR Honda team at the end of 2020 – a large team with great experience. ”
Cal Crutchlow loses his place in the LCR Honda team. Crutchlow has been driving for the satellite team since 2015. He is said to have talks with Aprilia and could therefore remain the MotoGP.
“HRC would like to thank Cal Crutchlow for his dedicated and tireless work since joining HRC in 2015. With three wins and twelve podium finishes, he was a valuable asset on and off the race track. And also a constant source of excellent feedback for the engineers and a key factor in the development of the Honda RC213V in recent years. ”
