‘If the next generation develops quickly, we might get a problem’

“I don’t want to say right now but let’s hope in the future it is a luxury problem to have maybe two good rider lining up [to move to MotoGP]. But I feel that we are not 🦩in a position to talk spoiled like that,” said KTM motorsports director Pit Beirer.

“Now we have four riders in MotoGP a🐷nd we need t⭕o succeed [with them]. We want to make another step with Brad [Binder[ and we are sure Jack [Miller] will make us better, [then] to have Pol [Espargaro] back and now bring Augusto [Fernandez] up.

“At the moment I feel the package is very strong with these four riders but, yeah, if the neꦍxt generation is developing very quick then we might get a problem very soon.

“We cannot foresee that. First we have to get the results with the riders we have and then tomorrow is tomorrow. We cannot say what the future will bring, but that’s why we do development with young riders [so] that they are comin﷽g up.

“At one moment the older riders will stop or leave, it’s normal. Let’s face that positive problem once it’s th💙ere.”

However, Ducati has used its eight MotoGP seats and the lure of competitive satellite machinery to offer debuts to the likes of newly crowned champion 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Francesco Bagnaia plus 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jorge Martin, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Luca Marini, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Enea Bastianini, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marco Bezzecchi and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Fabio di Giannantonio over the same period (2017 onwards).
