MotoGP 2024: Honda's Joan Mir Gains Eight Places After Charging To 12th At Jerez
Record-breaking weekend crowds of 300,000 were treated to another Spanish Grand Prix for the history books on Sunday. With blue skies and not a hint of Saturday’s rain, Joan Mir was determined to repeat his forward progress from the Sprint and end a complicated weekend on a high. Starting well, the #36 moved from 20th to 16th in the space of a single lap and maintained a steady pace further into the points, the Honda Team informed in a release on Monday.
Locked in a battle with Raul Fernandez for most of the race, Mir crossed the line in 12th and just under a tenth of a second from his best result of the season so far. The 2020 World Champion was full of praise for the Honda Team, which worked diligently throughout. His attention immediately turns to continuing to find improvements in testing.
