Increasingly competitive, Suzuki also does not guarantee the MotoGP satellite team
Like it or not, Suzuki is growing and increasingly competitive in MotoGP. Alex Rins' two wins are proof of that. However, maker Hamamatsu, Japan, does not yet know when it will reduce the satellite team, as Motorsport Total recently reported.
After the break in 2011, Suzuki returned to MotoGP in 2015 and this season, for the first time, they regularly fight to the top with Rins. The Spaniard has won three podiums and two wins in Austin, Texas, and Silverstone, England.
Beginner, Joan Mir, is indeed far behind the beginning of Petronas Yamaha, SRT, Fabio Quartararo. Despite this, Suzuki Ecstar manager Shinici Sahara does not dispute this claim and still see positive progress from the 2017 Moto3 world champion.
"We are happy with the season so far, with the exception of a few accidents, but this is the world of racing, and sometimes racers can be too aggressive and accidents can happen. We are very happy with the development of our bikes and runners, Joan's progress makes us believe that it can grow from series to series, "Sahara said.
Mir also suffered a major accident during the Czech test in Brno in early August, where he fell at a speed of 300 km / h on the first corner. He is seriously injured, he is also absent in Austria and England, but will return to the track at Misano, San Marino, this weekend.
It is interesting to note that although Suzuki has improved performance graphics, Sahara acknowledges that it is not yet possible to determine when they can bring down the satellite team, which can accelerate the development of GSX -RR. Although this program is a speech since 2017.
"We are thinking about the possibility of having a satellite team and how to manage it, we have not made a final decision, we will not have a satellite team next season. In 2021, the satellite team can always be the choice we consider," concluded Sahara.
Aside from Suzuki, Aprilia Racing is also a producer of MotoGP participants who, to this day, do not have a satellite team. Ducati is still the producer with the largest number of satellite teams, namely Pramac Racing and Reale Avintia Racing.
