LCR Honda IDEMITSU rider Takaaki Nakagami has ended 12th at the Grand Prix of Portugal after a demanding race at the Circuit of Portimao.
Nakagami and the team have taken a step forward, confirming his previous good feelings on the bike. Even though there is room for improvement, there has been a progression, and to inaugurate the season grabbing solid points means the extra motivation to keep pushing. Things this way, Argentina will be another place to keep working and another chance to keep pushing.

“I’m quite positive after this race. It’s been quite difficult because rivals didn’t make it easy, and we needed to manage the situation, but overall, we’ve got important points and know which path to follow to reach the competitors. Let’s see what we can do in Argentina; I can’t wait to be there”.
