HONDA WARNS WITHDRAWAL FROM MOTOGP

Honda has warned it would consider quitting MotoGP if Dorna's spec ECU proposition becomes mandatory.

Dorna has long advocated a move to a spec system in order to cut costs and level the playing field.

It recently announced that a spec ECU will be made available to any team that wishes to use it from 2013.

Honda has been the most vocal opponent of the scheme, warning that it could pull out of Grand Prix racing.

HRC team principal Shuhei Nakamoto said “If Dorna boss Carmelo Ezpeleta carries on with his decision to force a control ECU and a rev limit, then Honda might retire from MotoGP".
