Encountering last chatter issue from RC213V, Honda will introduce new parts in next month. Shuhei Nakamoto expects new parts to be available during the one-day Estoril test on May 7.
This chatter issue was appear during the Brno and Valencia test last year, and also this year test at Sepang. It's sounds that after Jerez test, this chatter issue was reduced. But on the first opening race at Losail circuit, chatter made Stoner down to 3rd place podium.
According to MCN interview, Shuhei Nakamoto told:
“We don’t have a plan to bring a new chassis but we will bring some different items to try. We are trying several things but unfortunately we can’t fix this problem. This issue comes from the tyre grip level. If the track surface is different then the level of the chatter is also different.”
“All circuits we are having chatter. In the first Sepang test it was very bad, at the second Sepang test a little better. Jerez it wasn’t such a big problem but it was still there and in Qatar it was a very big problem again. We have tried several things and at the moment we haven’t found a solution to fix this problem.”
