As reported, KTM and Johann Zarco parted in MotoGP. The Frenchman was exempt from the contract. Now one seem to see him sooner than expected.

Zarco is facing a race comeback

Johan Zarco will race the last three rounds of MotoGP for LCR Honda. In Australia, Malaysia and Valencia he will take over the 2018 RC213V from Takaaki Nakagami. Zarco should not replace Nakagami. Nakagami is only planning an early surgery to be fit for the 2020 season.

He suffers from a shoulder problem similar to Marc Marquez’s last year. Since it takes a long time to get back to 100% after the surgery, Nakagami would prefer to have surgery in order to be able to attack again from the beginning in 2020.

KTM puts no obstacles in Zarco’s small comeback.
