Honda’s test rider has been in chats about a potential new chassis for his team – and we could be seeing updates as early as later this season. 

By later this season, we mean later this year; Stefan Bradl states on MotorcycleSports that his team has continued to work on the HRC, and now has an idea of what needs to be fixed for MotoGP’s next round of challenges.

“We have begun to understand why we have been so weak until now,” imparts Stefan. 

“It will take some time to find a solution; it will not be done in an instant. Our problem cannot be solved until the next Grand Prix, nor in the next two months…there are serious parts in the chassis area that need to be changed, but it can be done.”

“I think we will see more updates this season. There will definitely be something coming to the track that will lead to significant change.”
