Jack Miller will be riding an open class Honda in MotoGP next season!

Will young Marquez follow?

He might find it more difficult than he thinks, I like Jack but lately he has not done as well as some of his competitors and might not become world champion.
It was the same last year with Scott Redding.

It was rumored that Suzuki was courting him. Moving to an open class Honda may prove wise as Honda is supposed to make many improvements on their customer bikes for next year.

You could be right. The rest of the season will be very interesting. Jackass is getting passed too easily at this stage, something I wouldn't have expected after the first few rounds. Where's the problem, is it man or machine? Or both? KTM and Jack need to get back on song or Jack will not see the season out as the champ. Fenati is also an enigma. Red hot in the first few rounds and now looking much more ordinary. An exciting end to the season indeed.
In any case a move to the premiere class next season may be a mistake, particularly on an uncompetitive machine. To go to Moto2 as the champ, and to a competitive team, I would have thought would be the ideal outcome at the seasons end. He's still a pup so a long way to go for him. Though it hurts me to say it, I don't think he is as good as Marquez. The senior that is.
Cheers.
