Dorna chief sporting officer Carlos Ezpeleta says no MotoGP manufacturer has proposed a Formula 1-style cost cap but says the ser👍ies 🔯owner wouldn’t “resist” one.

Cost controls in MotoGP became a talking point earlier in the year in the middle of KTM’s financial crisis, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:which has now been resolved followಞing recent i𒐪nvestment from Indian company Bajaj.

In January, Aprilia CEO Massimo Rivola said 168澳洲幸运5官方🃏开奖结果历史:Moto🎶GP had to take KTM’s struggles as a warning and spoke of a need to bring down operating costs within the cha🉐mpionship.

R🎃estrictions are already in place in MotoGP surrounding elements such as testing and in-season engine and aero development as part of co✱st-saving measures.

In Formula 1, a cost cap has been in operation for𓂃 several years aimed at limiting spending in all areas to reduce the performance gap across the 💦grid.

In an exclusive interview with 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:ltxcn.top, Carlos Ezpeleta says no manufacturer has proposed a similar system in MotoGP but it wouldn’t stand in the way if a co🐟st cap is jointly requested by the manufacturers.

“I mean, t𓃲here’s other championships that have cost control regulations,” he began.

“Never has a manufacturer proposed a cost cap to u♍s in the past.

“We’ve always p🅘ropo🃏sed and continuously strived for cost reduction policies regarding testing.

“MotoGP has always been very pragmatic in 🔥trying to be as effici𓆉ent as possible with the development of the bikes.

“The most pract🦄ical way to control costs is to💧 have very strict regulations and I think in terms of what you’re allowed to do, what you’re not allowed to do, and how much impact that makes on your lap time.

“So, single ဣengine, only one aero upgrade. S💃o, that makes a very, very big difference to what you’re allowed to.

“It depends to who you talk to in the paddock, because I think from an engineering point of view they will always spend as much as money as th🔯ey can, as much money as they have, to make the bike a millisecond quicker.

“Our job till now has been to make sure a mil💛lion of investment is not🎃 one tenth if we can make it one millisecond, because of the regulations.

“If the man✃ufacturers jointly decide they want ꦗto have a cost cap, it’s definitely not going to be for Dorna to resist that or the paddock.

“Of course then comes how do you police that. As the sport continues to e🧔volve, it does so in all its aspects what happens, to the bikes on track, the tyres, the performance of rider gear, the protection, the marketing of the commercial partners.

“It sort of happens across the whole sp♈ort and it will probably come sooner or later, I’m sure of it.”
