Honda’s test rider has provided the first feedb🎐ack on the 2024 bike’s new aerodynamics.

Stefan Bradl put in some laps over two days of testing at Jerez, ahead of the MotoGP Sepang shakedown on February 1-3.

Whispers had already em♋erged out of Spain that this year’s Honda would have a new aero package and a new engine, and will be 8 kilos lighter than tꦦhe troublesome bike left behind by Marc Marquez.

even reported that Honda staff feel their curre💟nt bike would have good enough to convince Marquez to stay, if it had been deliver🍎ed to him earlier.

Bradl told about the RC213V's developments: “The aero in general has an effect that🎃 is♛ unbelievable.

“This filters a little♓ bit the feeling that the rider has 💖towards the tyres and asphalt.

“Thisಞ changes the feeling you feel with your hands on the ✅handlebars or on your butt.

“The effect is clearly noticeable, especiaജlly in the fast corners.

“We'reꩲ talking about some s🍷urface area on the fairing, at 150 km/h this has a massive impact.

“Aerodynamics are important for everything today: more top speed, better turning, fewer whee෴lies.”

New concession🐭s rules could give Honda the ♍opportunity to climb back towards the top of MotoGP.

They will benefi🍎t, along with Yamaha, more than the other manuf♎acturers.

They receive 260 tyre t💙ests, three wildcards, two a𒈔ero updates and ongoing engine development.

Their riders - Luca Marini, Joan Mir, Johann Zarco, Takaaki Nakagami, Stefan Bradl and T🦂akumi Takahashi - can feature at the Sepang shakedown, giving them a head-start over their rivals.

Bradl revealed the wildcards have been applied for the rounds at Jerez, Barcelona and the Sachsenring🧸.
