Why Crutchlow's future ambitions won't be broken by miserable 2020
Cal Crutchlow's Honda MotoGP exit may look justified, given his rough start to the year. But the only rider other than Marc Marquez to have won on the RC213V in recent times isn't about to lose his resolve as he seeks a ride to keep him on the grid in 2021
It's an inescapable fact that Honda is in the throes of its worst start to a premier class season since it parked its woeful NR500 four-stroke project of the late 1970s and returned properly in 1982 with the brilliant NS500.
After five rounds of the 2020 MotoGP season, Honda is yet to register a podium finish. It's best-placed rider is currently Takaaki Nakagami on the year-old LCR-run RC213V in sixth in the standings having managed a best of fourth in the Andalusian Grand Prix.
