If Dorna bring in a spec ECU. Honda say it will hinder bike development and won't justify the cost of racing.
Will Dorna call their bluff or give in??

Posturing by Honda. It'll be interesting to see though.

Spec ECU in a prototype class seems silly.

So what, that will leave Yamaha and Ducati? Laughing

Won't happen, most of the grid is made up of Honda's is it not. An upcoming star also just won on a Honda. Kind of like Ferrari or Mclaren pulling out of F1

Spec ECU is stupid, they saw that Moto2 worked so they're trying to copy it for the prototype class

Honda are happy with a spec engine in Moto2 since they're supplying it.

Maybe, Honda really want the contract to supply the spec ECU for GP.
