Taka out to impress at home race for LCR

Takaaki Nakagami is determined to put on a good show as his LCR team head back to their homeland for round 14 of the 2021 MotoGP World Championship. The LCR Honda IDEMITSU rider brought up his 200th GP appearance last weekend in Aragon and will now look to impress at a venue he has enjoyed in the past.

While he may have hoped for more, Taka registered another top 10 last time out in Spain and will again focus on being competitive from the off at Misano. The Japanese star can take heart from three Moto2 podium finishes at the Rimini-based circuit – as well as back-to-back top-10s there last year – and is hopeful of further success this weekend.

Takaaki Nakagami: “We are now fully focused on the Misano GP, it’s a home GP for the LCR team so we hope to have a great, great weekend and, as always, we will try our best and hopefully we can get a positive result.”
