Honda is in the midst of a dire period in MotoGP, with two of the last four years seeing the brand go winless in the premier class.
While LCR’s Alex Rins was able to end its victory drought earlier in 2023 at the Americas GP, it has so far proven to be an outlier result as all of HRC’s stable struggle on the troubled RC213V.
FEATURE: The crisis point Honda has reached in MotoGP
Marquez has just 15 points to his credit after he crashed out of the podium battle once again last weekend in Italy, having done the same at the previous round in France.
Honda’s MotoGP struggles come as the HRC division of Honda has brought both bike racing and car racing under the one banner.
From 2026, Honda will return to F1 fully as an engine manufacturer with Aston Martin.
However, Marquez insists that Honda’s increased F1 involvement is not harming the MotoGP project and hopes it can prove to be a boost.
