Fabio Quartararo to Honda HRC, 2027-2028. And they've grabbed David Alonso too. This is big. A former champion going to rebuild a sinking Honda — thinking back to my own racing days, this kind of move is a rider's resolve made real. I can't take my eyes off these next two years.

A multi-year deal through 2027-28 shows a level of seriousness that's almost rare to see.
From Yamaha's perspective, this basically means losing their flagship rider—that's got to sting.
Honestly, Yamaha's going to be in trouble if they don't develop their next pillar rider.
Honda building around a French champion reminds me of the Lorenzo era.
Unlike Lorenzo's case, Quartararo's coming back for another shot after a slump—that's the difference.
Signing both Quartararo and Alonso really shows they're serious about rebuilding the team's glory.
Official confirmation aside, it's still two years out, so it doesn't quite feel real yet.
