168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Takaaki Nakagami hopes to know his MotoGP future before the start of the flyaway rounds.

An LCR Honda rider since joining the premier class in 2018, Nakagami’s race seat is under threat from Moto2 star Somkﷺiat Chantra.

Some rumours suggest a de🦋al with the Thai rider is already done, although HRC team manager Alberto Puig insisted in Austria on Sunday that “nothing is decided yet.”

Nakagami is thought to have received some kind of offer from🍬 Honda, and has long been touted as a potential MotoGP test rider - although HRC has already signed Aleix Espargaro to join Stefan Bradl in its European test team.

While unwilling to reꩵveal the nature of the HRC offer, Nakagami did give a timeline for a decisඣion:

“Aragon or Misano, I hope,” Nakagami said. “After this GP we have a one week off because the Repsol guys go to the Misano test, ꧟but our LCR team we don't🐻 have any tests. So it looks like I have time to think about it.”

The Aragon round takes place next weekend followed immediately🅷 by the first Misano event.

A second Misano rou🐷nd, in place of Kazakhstan, will takes place on Septemb🉐er 20-22 before the run of five flyaway rounds begins, in Indonesia.

Alberto Puig: “Honda must think what will be the future”

Nakagami finished as 💞the top Honda rider with 14th place in Sunday's Austrian MotoGP, putting him just one point behind team-mate and top Honda rider Johann Zarco in the world championship standings (18th).

Repsol Honda's Joan Mir is tied with Nakagami on 13 points, with L🥂uca Marini scoring just one point so far this year.

“My plan A is to stay with the same team and to continue because honestly speaking it is not fair to decide my potential thꦐis season because all four riders are struggling,ꦑ not only me,” Nakagami said at Silverstone earlier this month.

Speaking to Simon Crafar at the Red Bull Ring, Puig said of the last ꦦremaining 2025 Honda race seat: “Nothi🔴ng is decided yet. But Taka is a rider that has a lot of experience with our bike. And also, he's very fast.

“It’s true that he has not been so lucky in the past years, he had some injuries. Bꦜut always to have a Japanese rider with a high level is very good for the factory, beဣcause the communication in Japanese is let's say more understandable for them.

“And I think T𝓡aka has a clear understanding of the bike and during all these years he helped a lot for the development of t♛he bike.

“But on the 💝other hand it's true that the Asia Talent Cup produces a lot of riders and, for example, Ogura signed for MotoGP with Aprilia and Chantra in t♎he future maybe can also join MotoGP.

🐎“So it's a compromise and Honda♒ must think what will be the future of these people. But to have experienced riders beside young riders is always positive. And this is more or less in the situation where we are now with the Asian riders.”

“Chantra can be cool, but Nakagami has the experience”

Nakagami’s current LCR Honda team-mate Joꦚhann Zarco, in the first year of a two-year contract, said:

“I don’t know [who it will be]. I heard about Chantra. Which would be kind of cool, for 🎶Thailand to have a rider. He has a lot of energy, he attacks a lot. But🥀 clearly he doesn't have the experience that Nakagami has."

Looking at the RC213ဣV project as a whole, the Frenchman added that Chantra’s lack of MotoGP expe🌊rience might not be a bad thing.

“I think having a rookie, learning new things, we c🐼an… maybe understand some strong or some weak points of the bike. Because a rookie doesn't have any references.

"Sometimes having like a '[blank] papeꦓr' can ཧbe kind of interesting and good.”
