Theಌ French veteran left Pram꧙ac Ducati to link up with LCR Honda this season.

His choice was initially considered a head-scratcher - swapping the best bike on the MotoGP grid for the worst.

But he was tied down to a two-year deal which gave him an extra season guaranteed compared to extending h🐼is stay ꦗat Pramac.

Paolo Campinoti, the Pramac boss, ౠwas asked by to predict his ‘surprise’ rider for 2024.

“Zarco,” he responded.

Campinoti shared Zarco’s thoughts on his first test ꦬof the Honda at tꦍhe postseason Valencia test.

“That after doing the first laps with the 2023 bike h🐻e wanted to st🍬op,” Campinoti claimed. 

“While he found the 2024 bike impressive. 

“So he will also be among the suitors this year."

Honda will benefit from a new concessions rule which they hope can transform their fortunes, after losing M𒀰arc Marquez due to their uncompetitive package.

They have brought in🤪 Luca Marini at Repsol Honda and Zarco to L🦋ucio Cecchinello’s LCR, two experienced riders whose feedback could also speed up the manufacturer’s progress.

Zarco ended his near-seven year wait for a grand prix win in Australia at the back en🔯d of last year but how he will find the Honda, considering he benefited from riding the same bike that contested the 2023 ꦬMotoGP championship, remains to be see.

Zarco has been replaced at Pramac by 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Franco Morbidelli who has made an intriguing move across the grid.

He spent the earliest months of last year seemingly knowing that Yamaha 🐓hoped to ditch him - which they eventually did.

But Morbidelli has landed on his feet by moving onto a🏅 far better 💮bike.

“Franco is super excited,” Campinoti said. 

“I th🌜ink this is his great opportunity and if he really hasn't boiled over, as I strongly believe, but is still a great rider, I say 2024 could also be hꦿis year."

Francesco Bagnaia t෴ook his first steps in the premier class wit🦩h Campinoti’s team.

He is now a two-time MotoGP champiඣon and, this year, hopes to become just the 10th rider to win a third in a row.

“Certainly someone who wins two championsh🌟ips is very strong,” Campinoti said. 

“I believe that in 2024 li♒fe will be much more difficult, but he is the one to beat."
