When Joan Mir was caught up in the first chicane mayhem at Le 𝔉Mans, it not only ended with a seventh DNF of the season but left the HRC rider with a fracture to his right hand and neck pain.

Fortunately, the finger damage didn’t prevent Mir from completing his usual training routine ahead of this weekend's British MotoGP, while physio has improved t꧙he condition of ⛎his neck.

Mir currently tops the falls list with nine accidents during grand prix weekends this season, and the 2020 world champion’s main 💫goal will again be to convert speed into results at Silverstone.

“We went for ꦑsome more checks between the races and everything is looking OK,” said Mir.

“T💦here is some damage in the top of the finger, but I have been able to continue training and preparing more or less as normal.

“I worked a lot with mওy physio on the neck, and we have also made progress there.

“The plan and situation for the weekend doesn’t change, we showed that in Le Mans we ꦑhave speed ꧟and just need a bit of luck and to get back into Q2 to avoid anything in the opening laps. Let’s get to it.”

While Johann Zarco took Honda’s first victory since 2023 in the wet at Le Mans, Mir’s team-mate 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Luca Marini was a frustrated eleventh after bike swaps went agains🌠t him.

Nonetheless, with Alex Marquez c💝rashing out, the Italian is now the only rider to have scored in all sꩲix (Sunday) grand prix races this season.

“The start to the year has been good and now we need to look to make a step and become even more competitive,” said Marini, who has a best race result of eighth t✨his season.

“Everyone involved has been working really well, an🍒d you can tell that with amount the Test Team is d🐲oing, all of Honda HRC are pushing.

“It’s been busy between the two races, and I am confident that we can perf꧙orm well and add more points 𒁏to our card.

“This year we go to Silverstꦫone at a different time of the year so w🌼e need to see what the weather will do and react accordingly.”

Former꧙ Silverstone winner Aleix Espargaro will be making his second HRC wild-card appearance of the season this weekend, hot on the heels of sixth place by fellow test rider Takaaki Nakagami at Le Mans.
