LCR Honda has become the latest team to reveal its colours for the 2024 MotoGP World Championship season as Johann Zarco made his official debut with the team alongside Takaaki Nakagami.
The Monegasque team, which achieved its first win since 2019 last year with Alex Rins in the Grand Prix of The Americas, features a revised rider line-up for 2024 with Johann Zarco moving over from Pramac Ducati to join Nakagami, who enters into his seventh season with both LCR and in MotoGP.
As has been the case in recent years, LCR will run two bikes with different liveries to denote primary partners Castrol and Idemitsu.
With Zarco replacing Rins, it means he will adopt the familiar green, white and red hues of Castrol, the RC213V displaying a revised design in-keeping with the oil and lubricant giants' recent rebrand. Nakagami will continue to run with branding from Japanese fuel brand, Idemitsu.
Zarco comes to the team on the back of his strongest MotoGP campaign yet after scoring a long awaited maiden MotoGP win in Australia.
During four years with Ducati, Zarco achieved 15 podiums, peaking with his win at Phillip Island - his first in 120 MotoGP starts - and twice finished fifth in the overall standings.
Nakagami, meanwhile, is one of the few riders on the MotoGP grid yet to achieve a podium in MotoGP. The Japanese rider has come close on several occasions, his best chances coming during a 2020 MotoGP campaign where he achieved 12 top ten results in 14 races.
