Alex Rins:Ā ā€œI am very happy to be joining the LCR Honda Team. Changing team and bike is a challenge but I am ready to give my 100% and to put into practice everything that Iā€™ve learnt during my years in the MotoGP class. Lucio and Hondaā€™s trust have been crucial for me in deciding to take on this challenge with this factory. I would like to thank them for this opportunity.ā€

Lucio Cecchinello (LCR Honda Team Manager): ā€œI am delighted to announce that Ɓlex Rins will be the LCR Honda CASTROL rider in 2023. Weā€™ve just finished signing the contract, all 3 parties, so we are finally able to announce it. Rins is an experienced rider, a fast rider and a podium finisher. This wealth of experience, coupled with Rinsā€™ ability to give the precise suggestions to his technicians, as Iā€™ve heard, will surely help us to improve our our bike package, aiming to fight for more podiums.ā€
