Pol Esparg♔aro will𒁃 have an additional role as a TV broadcaster this year.

He will become part of the presentation team for Spa𝔉nish TV channel DAZN's coverage of MotoGP.

Espargaro is joining a lꦐine-up which already includes Dani Pedrosa and Jorge Lorenzo.

Espargaro has spent the past 10 years as🎃 a full-time MotoGP rider but, this season, has lost his Tech3 GASGAS seat to Pedro Acosta.

He will remain as a test and reserve rider for KTM and Tech3 GASGAS but will now have an additional role to fulfil inside the paddockꦇ.

“I'm goin🎉g to continue being at the circuits, it was something very important," Espa꧒rgaro explained. 

"Before there 𝄹were things that could escape you, but here they don't escape you, you see them instantly and you can communicate in a more direct way. 

"I take it as a new project, I hope I am qualified to do ▨it, but it will undoubtedly be something new and difficult. See you under the lights of Qatar."

Espargaro, now 32, w🎃on the Moto2 title in 2013 🗹before progressing into the premier class.

He🦩 represented Yamaha, Honda and KTM in two stints.

But the emergence of the brilliant teenager Acosta ༒resulted in KTM selecting Espargaro as the rider who would miss out on a full-time🐭 race seat.

Instead, he can now have one eye on the future with a new gig in the TV wo🍨rld.
