JWR Honda team owner in intensive care

2026 planning is still ongoing, but that’s not important today.

Over the past few weeks, our team owner Johan has been going through a very tough time. Following his heart operation last week, several complications occurred, and unfortunately everything that could go wrong did go wrong.

Johan is currently in intensive care and is fighting hard to recover. He has a long road ahead of him.

We wanted to keep everyone informed about his condition. Please keep Johan in your thoughts and send him some love and strength. We will share updates as soon as we have more information.
