Johann Zarco is poised to make his return to MotoGP competition at the Aragon circuit on August 28-30, LCR Honda confirmed on Thursday. The French rider will need to satisfy medical assessments at the venue before competing in the race.
Zarco has been absent from recent rounds while recovering from injury. His comeback at Aragon would mark an important milestone in his rehabilitation, though the team has made his participation contingent on passing health checks conducted at the circuit.
The 28-year-old, who rides for the Honda satellite team, will aim to regain race fitness and championship points as the MotoGP season progresses. Aragon represents the next opportunity for the rider to demonstrate his readiness to return to competitive action.
MotoGP teams frequently conduct on-site medical evaluations before cleared riders return to racing, ensuring competitor safety given the high speeds and physical demands of grand prix motorcycle racing.
