Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP Team

• 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Fabio Quartararo (contracted until end of 2024) #20

The 2021 MotoGP champion has never looked more unhappy, and Ya▨maha appear no closer to delivering him the competitive machin𒆙ery that his undeniable talent requires.

Quartararo ꧂won’🧔t go elsewhere next season because he is under contract, but the knock-on effect will be whether other manufacturers leave a free spot for 2025.

The age and brilꦦliance of Quartararo means that most teams wouldꦚ love to acquire him and, if Yamaha cannot give him the assurances that he needs, 2024 will be dominated by talk of where he could go next.

• 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Franco Morbidelli (contracted until end of 2023) #21

One of the likelier MotoGP rider🔯s to vacate his current seat n𝐆ext year.

Morbidelli entered 2023 under intense pressure in ﷽the final year of his contract, but😼 the early signs were promising. He briefly outperformed Quartararo.

Lin Jarvis, Yamaha managing director, even named Morbidelli as his No1 choice for the f𒐪ac🍬tory bike next season if he maintained his good form.

But Yamaha’s l🎃inks to Jorge Martin and Marco Bezzecchi won’t go away, and Morbidelli must know that his fate will soon be decided.

The Mooney VR46 team are the clear landi💫ng spot for Morbidelli, should Marco Bezzecchi move on. The obvious link is that Morbi🌞delli is one of four VR46 Academy graduates on the current grid.

Ducati Lenovo Team

• 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Francesco Bagnaia (contracted until end of 2024) #63

No question that the reigning MotoGP 🦩champion, who currently leads this year’s MotoGP standings, will remain a fact𝓀ory Ducati rider next season.

• 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Enea Bastianini (contracted until end of 2024) #23

Last season’s heroics with Gresini earned Bastianini a promotion but🐽, due to a shoulder blade injury sustained in the first-ever sprint race, his season hasn’t got𝄹 started. He will race at Mugello next week but won’t be fully fit.

Ducati boss Paolo Ciabatt🍬i was asked💝 whether he might fancy dropping Bastianini in 2024, such is the fierce competition for a factory seat.

“There are no changes planned,” was his response.

But that is a reminder to Bastianini, even before his first grand prix ᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚas a factory Ducati rider, of the intense scrutiny he will face at the iconic Italian manufacturer.

Aprilia Racing

• 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Aleix Espargaro (contracted until end of 2024) #41

The oldest rider on the grid is contracted for 2024, and has confirmed he will stay active for at leas﷽t that long.

The intrigue surrounds how long Espargaro might battle on for, and theref𓆉ore when Aprilia need to replace him.

“If next year, at the beginning of the year, I am fightin🥃g with the best, I will continue in 2025, if Aprilia wants it,” he has said.

• 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Maverick Vinales (contracted until end of 2024) #12

Also contracted until the ཧend of next year, there will be no movement for Vinales.

“From a contractual point of view we are fixed for the next twoಌ years and hopefu🧜lly more,” Massimo Rivola, the Aprilia boss, said. 

“I’m really convinced thaꩲt maybe we have the bes🧔t line-up of four riders in the paddock."

Repsol Honda Team

• 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marc Marquez (contracted until end of 2024) #93

Where to even begin? The six-time MotoGP champion is signed to the most ෴lucrative contract in the sport currently, which r෴uns until the end of next year.

His glory has been synonymous with Honda, the team he has represented for his entire MotoGP career, but he entered 2023 making demands that ꧂they must deliver him a competitive b🥀ike - or he might find one elsewhere.

But things have changed since then. Marque🎀z got injured, another physical blow to his mounting toll. Honda have a genius rider on their books but also one who has missed large periods for the past four seasons. Now 30, he isn’t getting any younger either.

Jorge Lorenzo thinks that Du𝔉cati will make an offer to Marquez for 2025, but on lower money than he is used to. Choose Honda’s money or Ducati’s bike, Lorenzo has claimed.

Ducati have denied that they want a rider of Marq💛uez’s age.

But 🅠with the most esteemed and successful rider in the sport entering the final year of his deal next year, on a bike which might not give him a chance of a seventh championship, there will surely be a scramble to tempt him.

KౠTM have the same link to the might of Red Bull that Marquez has…

• Joan Mir (contracted until end of 2024) #36

The 2020 champion wജith Suzuki, things have 💞gone very badly so far at Honda.

But Mir is protected by another year of his contract, and there is no suggestion that Honda would want♛ to get rid.

The pressure, however, may come from Alex Rins, their satellite rider who has so far out-perfꦯormed his former Suzuki teammate Mir.

Lucio Cecchinello, LCR Honda team boss, said about rumours of a Mir-Rins swap: “Such a team change is ou🍸t of the question. I can guarantee that."

Red Bull KTM Factory Racing

• 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jack Miller (contracted until end of 2024) #43

Things are going pretty sweetly for K♋TM at the moment. Miller was brought across from Ducati, and i🐎s contracted for another year.

The only concern might apply to 2025, when Marc Marquez could become a free agent, and KTM may be inclined to make a move for him. But that’s a problem for much, ❀much later down the line.

• 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Brad Binder (contracted until end of 2024) #33

Binder, also, has a 2024 contract with KTM, the team he has been attacไhed to since 2015.

Gresini Racing MotoGP (Ducati)

• 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Alex Marquez (contracted until end of 2023) #73

Swapping Honda for Ducati 🌳has worked out welಌl so far. 

There are no substantial links to other bikes or teams. Marquez is on a on❀e-year deal but Ducati reportedly have the option to extend it, which means the 💮Spaniard’s future is in his team’s hands.

• 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Fabio di Giannantonio (contracted until end of 2023) #49

Major pressure is on the young Italian, and he is amꦑong the favourites to lose his MotoGP place altogether.

Tony Arbolino, who currently leadsꦿ Moto2, is the name seriously linked t⭕o replacing Di Giannantonio.

“Let's see, it's a little too early, we need a couple more races b🧔efore considering next year," Ducati boss Paolo Ciabatti has said.

But that sounds like a ‘now or never’ warning to Di Giannantonio, w𒈔hose contract finishes at the end of this season…

Prima Pramac Racing (Ducati)

• 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Johann Zarco (Ducati contract for 2023) #5

The second-oldest rider on the gr𓆏id could be a sacrificial lamb to enable Ducati to keep their prized assets.

Marco Bezzecchi’s desire for a better bike and salary has piqued Yamaha’s interest, which means that Ducati will ha𒈔ve to think how to keep the breakout start of this year. A move to Pramac is an option.

If that happens, Zarco 🔜could be out of MotoGP, and given a WorldSBK se🎐at.

• 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jorge Martin (Ducati contract for 2024) #89

For a l🥀ong time it seemed like a for🍒mality that Yamaha would give Martin the factory bike he has desired since missing out on the Ducati Lenovo seat.

Martin is contracted for 2024 but there is a clause in his contract allowing෴ him to get out early, if he receives a factory offer.

He isꦦ the “first candidate” that Yamaha want for 2024, ꦚit has been reported.

But he is concerned that Yamaha “continues not to keep its promises by thওe engineers”,  say.

Clearly,☂ there is more to come with the saga of Martin’s future. He could be the first domino to fall before the avalanche of rider market moves.

Mooney VR46 Racing Team (Ducati)

• 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Luca Marini (contracted until end of 2023) #10

His contract is due to expire at the end of this season, but everybody knows ♈Marini’s links to the VR46 set-up. And besides, his performances have clearly warranted an extension, which he is likely to receive.

• 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marco Bezzecchi (contracted until end of 2023) #72

His stunning start to 2023 - briefing leading the championship, winning his and Mooney VR46’s first-ever grand prix, and now sitting one point behind the championship leader - have made Bezzeccꦚhi hot property.

Ducati now clearly have a nice problem on their hands - how to keep happy an emergꦦing prized asset?

“Now Marco has a salary and a techniཧcal package in line with those of a satellite team. It’s not fair that he continues like this,” VR46 boss Uccio 👍Salucci said.

Bezzecchi has added: “To be in the factory [team]? That is something re🎐ally nice.”

Yamaha are casting an enviou🔯s glance at Bezzecchi and could offer him a factory seat, so Ducati know they must entice 🦄him to stay.

A switch to Pramac or a better package to remain at VR46 are options. The facto🤪ry Du🍨cati seat for 2024 is not an option.

In the background is VR46’s eventual deciℱsion of whether to stay with Ducati or go to Yamaha.

Bezzecchi, like Martin, is the crucial cog in the 2024 MotoGP rider market 💯whose future will dictate many of his peღers’.

RNF MotoGP Team (Aprilia)

• 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Miguel Oliveira #88 and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Raul Fernandez #25 (Aprilia contracts, end of 2024) 

Aprilia have stated that they will keep faith in their current four💞 riders, who are▨ all contracted for next year too.

The knock-on effect is Pedro Acosta 🉐- the brilliant teenage talent from Moto2, who lots of man♏ufacturers would love to have.

Massimo Rivola, Aprilia boss, has said: "When you have a super talent like Pedro - his name could be𒊎 associated with alꦺl the manufacturers - and I’m happy that his name is close to us also. 

"It means we are competitive and have a good bike because normally you put g꧂ood talent on a top bike. Good to hear but it’s not true."

Tech3 GASGAS Factory Racing (KTM)

• 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Pol Espargaro (KTM contract, end of 2024) #44

Espargaꩲro is contracted until the end of next season and KTM intend to retain faith in the experienced rider, unless he is unable to get back to his best following his crash in Portimao earlier this year.

• Augusto Fernandez (KTM contract end of 2023, option for 2024) #37

Theಌ lurking shadow of Pedro Acosta, who is already tied to KTM, is constantly keepi✨ng the pressure on Fernandez.

KTM’s preference is for Acosta, 19, to sta🌺y in Moto2 for 2024. But he is ambitious and talented, and they won’t want to miss out on him.

Acosta has teased: “If I ca▨n’t dress in orange, maybe in red…”

But with no obvious spot vacant at Ducati, Acosta has said about KTM: “They have experience to really plan what is best for my ꧟career, and for my [first] season i♚n MotoGP.”

Thereꦬfore, Fernandez is expected to stay next year.

LCR Honda Castrol/Idemitsu

• 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Alex Rins (Honda contract, end of 2024) #42

He became the first Honda rider, aside from M⭕arc Marquez, to win a grand priꦛx since 2018 in Texas this year.

That was a reminder of his qualities - but Rins has a deal t🎀hat runs through 2024.

The thing to keep an eye on might be his relationship with his own team. His public c♎riticism that Honda didn’t use him enough for development did not go down well with his 🐼employers, in Spain reported.

• 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Takaaki Nakagami (Honda contract, end of 2023) #30

The only Honda rider whose contract is due to expire at t꧋he end of this year.

Ai Ogura, his fellow Japanese🐼 rider, has been touted as a replacement for next year.

But Ogura has been unable ꦇto truly stake a claim so🥃 far with a disrupted season in Moto2.

Still, Nakagami sh🦂ould be looking over his shoulder.
