Officially, both Jack Miller and Tito Rabat are still within the walls of a Marc VDS team which, however, is struggling behind the scenes to find who will be Franco Morbidelli's teammate in 2018.

For the moment, no one from Honda Motor Europe has come to talk to me seriously about the 2018 season. We were supposed to do it after my 8 hours at Suzuka ". To be continued…
