Denies Negotiations With LCR Honda, Jack Miller: It Took Time To Persuade Me To Move From Ducati

JAKARTA - The market for MotoGP riders for next season is already heating up. Several drivers whose contracts will expire at the end of this season, Jack Miller is one of them.

Recently, rumors circulated that Jack Miller had been in talks with Honda's satellite team, LCR. In fact, he is said to have spoken directly with the boss of LCR, Lucio Cecchinello, and also the Honda Racing Corporation (HRC).

However, this was immediately denied by the Lenovo Ducati rider. He indicated his goal was to stay at the Bologna-based team.

"There was no discussion whatsoever with LCR (Honda). We did not discuss moving with anyone," said Miller on the MotoGP page.

The Australian rider said his team had just started with a ridiculous season. So it's not the right time to think about the future.

"We will take our time and consider our options. But for sure, I know Ducati, I have been here long enough and know how it works here," he said.

"I have a good home here at Ducati. It took a little time to persuade me to go elsewhere," continued Jack Miller.
