Shinichi Kokubu has left his role as technical director at Honda.
He departs his job in the middle of the 2023 MotoGP season and, notably, during the Japanese MotoGP - his, and Honda’s, home race.
Kokubu was significantly absent from the Honda garage last weekend in India, and also this weekend at Motegi. Kokubu joined Honda in 1986 and, for the past 11 years, has been the technical director, therefore hugely influential on Honda’s bike. But that machine has fallen dramatically down the pecking order in the past two-and-a-half seasons, and Honda are currently last behind the other four manufacturers.Related Articles
