MotoGp, Joan Mir sends clear message to Marc Marquez

“Pushing together in the same direction is very important, rather than each rider doing it alone.”

First interview as a Honda rider for Joan Mir, who is looking forward to starting the season and leaving behind the last period in Suzuki: “I think I am in a good moment and I am also young to try to repeat again what we have done in the past. Being part of this team means more pressure, because all that matters here is winning. I know I’m coming at a difficult time, but the goal is to take this team to where it deserves to be.”

Crucial will be his relationship with Marc Marquez: “During the test I was able to do some laps with him and also share some data. He knows exactly how this bike works. He can enter corners very fast, probably faster than the bikes I have tested in the past. Also, the way the bike delivers power is different than what I have experienced before. I have to get used to it , while Marc can do it very well.”

“Pushing together in the same direction is very important, rather than each rider doing it alone. We want to take the right path together.”
