I'm an Aleix Espargaró fan, and if you are too, let's get excited together because we get to see him mix it up with the best again. Espargaró will be shredding tires at the Spanish Grand Prix, which will take place at Jerez - Ángel Nieto Circuit between April 25-27, and it'll be his first race since retiring as a full-time MotoGP rider in 2024.
Although Espargaró retired aboard an Aprilia, and practically every other manufacturer on the grid over the last 15 years, including Yamaha, Ducati, and Suzuki, we've never seen him on a Honda. That's about to change.
The Spanish rider has been helping Honda develop the RC213V in the off-season when he became a test rider for the brand, but now he'll be using his decades of race experience to aid development of the bike through a weekend of racing.
