The chance to ride on a factory team was too much to turn down for the Spaniard who has been frustrated by HRC's hesitancy to pass him along new parts, even if he claimed Honda's only victory of the year at the Circuit of the Americas. "We expected Alex would have accepted an offer from a factory," said current team boss Lucio Cecchinello. "The truth is Alex has been a factory rider for many years.

But this isn't under my control, it's under the control of HRC."
