Zarco will replace Alex Rins, who is moving to Yamah🦄a despite signing a two-year deal with the team.
The Frenchman is the only rider on the grid w💜ho has competed for four different manufacturers, which according to Cecchinello gives thওe LCR team a ‘unique’ rider.
Zarco has often been seen as one of D🌱ucati’s best riders for developing new parts, something Honda will need due to their current situation.
Honda are in the midst of their worst period in MoꦚtoGP with Marc Marquez and Joan Mir struggling for any type of form.
Both riders are leading the wa🐈y for the most crashes in 2023, which has not only led to injury for both, but the pair being linked with ꦿmoves away even though they are also on deals that run until the end of 2024.
But with Zarco being added to the fold for next yeꦐar, Honda could be signing a rider that can help move them forward in terms of development, especially as he will bring invaluable insight from Ducati.
Speaking about the team’s new signing, Cecchinello said: "We are very pleased to hav𝐆e signed Johann for 2024 and 2025, he was the best option we could have. He is a very experienced rider."
"He did a great devᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚelopment work in Ducati, but I don’t know why they decided to use him as a sort of ‘test rider’. He’s quite unique to ride Yamaha, KTM, Honda and Ducat꧑i."
