On Friday, Honda made another attempt to homologate wings similar to Ducati's, after MotoGP technical director Danny Aldridge rejected the wing's validity the day before.

At a press conference on Thursday, Marc Marquez did not yet know when Honda would use the wings, which he does not believe will make much of a difference.
