With Pedro Acosta and Marco Bezzecchi closing in, Bagnaia is under real threat of losing his Top 3 standing. A far cry from 2024, when he stormed to 11 wins, this season has been about survival.

🗣️ Pecco Bagnaia: “Actually, I’ve been taking risks all season, a lot of them. Last year was a lesson. It’s more important to finish races than to get eliminated.”

Despite the struggles, Pecco is trying to stay grounded. Meetings with Ducati bosses haven’t solved the GP25’s issues yet, but his new mindset is about consistency over desperation.

🗣️ “Even though I haven’t had fantastic results, I’m still third in the championship and I have to keep going like this.”

Ducati engineers are already planning a major overhaul of the GP25 this winter, hoping to bring it closer to the GP24’s behavior and restore Pecco’s lost braking confidence. Looking further ahead, the 2027 switch to Pirelli tires could also favor his smooth, precise style.

For now, Bagnaia knows he’s no longer fighting for wins every weekend. Instead, it’s about resilience, keeping his place in the fight, and believing the tide will turn.

MotoGP | Pol Espargaró drops a bombshell: “I want to race in MotoGP, not as a substitute!

At 34, Pol Espargaró is not done fighting. Once a Moto2 champion and long-time rival of Marc Márquez, Pol has carved his legacy as the man who put KTM on the map. After returning to action at Balaton Park just two weeks ago, he showed he still has the pace — and the hunger.

🗣️ Pol Espargaró: “I now have the opportunity to race in Superbike. I want to race in MotoGP, not as a wild card or as a replacement, because that’s not the scenario I like. But if the conditions I’m looking for aren’t there, then Superbike is a good solution.”

Rumors of a switch to WorldSBK have been swirling, but Pol insists his priority is still MotoGP — especially with KTM, the brand he helped shape into a factory contender.

🗣️ Pol explained: “There are real options and the chances are high. But of course, it depends on KTM’s deadlines and processes. People think contracts are all about money, but often it’s not the case. I’m waiting for KTM, and then I’ll decide.”

But time is ticking. With WSBK teams eager to secure him, Pol has sent a clear message to KTM’s new bosses: act fast.

🗣️ “I am always at the mercy of their wishes. I hope they don’t decide too late, because the market will close.”

🔥 Espargaró has made one thing clear: he’s not ready to fade into the background. Whether it’s on the RC16 in MotoGP or on a superbike grid, Pol still wants to fight at the front.

MotoGP | Yamaha lifts the veil: Quartararo, Rins & Miller test the long-awaited V4!

Barcelona wasn’t just about racing — it was history in the making. After Fabio Quartararo’s strong Catalan GP, Yamaha quietly rolled out the first-ever M1 V4 prototype, tested behind closed doors by Quartararo, Alex Rins, and Jack Miller.

🗣️ Yamaha Racing Director Paolo Pavesio: “This is the very first M1 V4 prototype. Fabio, Alex and Jack tested it for the first time. It’s been intense, exciting, and exhausting for the engineers, but we’re proud to have taken this first step so quickly.”

The test, fully private with no lap times shared, was kept under tight wraps. Even the bike itself stayed covered in the garage. But the suspense ends soon — the real debut comes at Misano (Sept 15), right after the San Marino GP, where Yamaha’s official riders plus test rider Augusto Fernandez will push the V4 on track.

🗣️ Pavesio teased: “The real journey begins in Misano, where we’ll show you much more than this little preview.”

This shift to a V4 engine marks a huge philosophical change for Yamaha, who aim to close the gap to Ducati and Aprilia. Rins admitted: “I hope the bike will behave differently. It’s a radical change, built from scratch.” Miller, confirmed at Pramac for 2026, also adds valuable experience, while Quartararo stays the spearhead of the Blue project.

⚡ With Marc Márquez leading the standings and Pecco Bagnaia under pressure, Yamaha’s gamble on the V4 could be the turning point of 2025. Misano may be the place where the balance of power begins to shift.

The V4 era has officially begun.

Pramac Yamaha is about to become the fun house of MotoGP. With Toprak Razgatlioglu joining the grid in 2026 alongside Jack Miller, fans can expect not just speed and battles—but also a pit lane full of “stoppies,” laughter, and pure energy.

Miller, whose stay with the team has been confirmed, is already buzzing about the arrival of the Turkish WorldSBK star.

🗣️ “It’s unreal to share the box with Toprak,” Miller told MotoGP’s Gear Up show. “He’s already a legend, and it’s great to see what he’s going to do here in MotoGP.”

But true to his style, Miller couldn’t resist a cheeky jab at himself:

🗣️ “I’ve said it many times, but this is the first time I’ve shared a box with someone who can do a better stoppie than me. So, I already feel inferior in the team!”

🔥 Jack & Toprak = Positive Vibes for Yamaha
Beyond the jokes, Miller is convinced that Razgatlioglu will bring exactly what Pramac needs.

🗣️ “It will be great. There will be good positive energy from us for the project—that’s what it needs.”

For the Aussie, Toprak’s biggest strength isn’t just his jaw-dropping bike control—it’s his authenticity.

🗣️ “I’d say he’s one of the most genuine people I’ve ever met. Whenever he came by the MotoGP paddock, he always went out of his way to say ‘hello.’ I appreciate that. He’s a sincere man.”

The respect for Razgatlioglu goes far beyond Miller.

🗣️ “Everyone in our paddock who worked with him in Superbike has only good things to say. He’s going to be a great addition to MotoGP.”

💥 2026: The Year of the Stoppie Show
With Toprak leading WorldSBK and set to arrive in MotoGP at his peak, and Miller bringing fire and experience, Pramac is gearing up for one of its most exciting seasons yet.

The duel promises to be electric on the track—and unforgettable in the pit lane. Fans, get ready: the “stoppie kings” are about to put on a show.

🏍️ Marc Márquez opened up after losing his 15-race winning streak to his younger brother Álex at Montmeló. Despite the defeat, the championship leader showed pride and admiration.

🗣️ "Well, if someone had to break the streak and it was my brother, we forgive him 100%. I tried, I tried, I tried to make that last push with seven laps remaining, but I almost crashed again on laps 7 and 10. He was going faster than me."

🗣️ "He may not be the explosive rider or the one with that 'extra' talent, but he's a harder worker than many. That’s allowed him to reach incredible form. He's already won here in Moto3, he's won twice in Moto2, now in MotoGP, and he's the only Ducati rider to win at Silverstone."

🗣️ "Even on the podium, it was hard not to get emotional because it's inexplicable to be able to share it, first and second, at home."

Looking ahead, Marc stays pragmatic about the title chase:
🗣️ "There are seven races left. If we continue with this mentality, it's just a matter of time."

Luca Marini after Montmeló: "It was a mistake for me to think I could catch Acosta."

Luca Marini continues to push forward with Honda, finishing as the top HRC rider at Montmeló with a solid 8th place.

🗣️ “I gave it my all! I thought I could catch Acosta, but that was my mistake. I pushed harder and the rear tire just died. Until then the race was steady, but as soon as I picked up the pace — boom, the tire dropped. The last five laps were survival mode.”

Despite the late struggles, Marini was satisfied with the progress:

🗣️ “It was a solid weekend on a very difficult track for Honda. One position more or less doesn’t change much right now unless it’s a podium. We’re growing step by step.”

Pol Espargaró: "It was a demonstration that Marc Márquez is a complete rider."

Pol Espargaró was full of praise after a thrilling Catalan GP where Álex Márquez claimed victory and Marc Márquez came close to second. For Pol, it was more than just a celebration at home — it was proof of the Márquez brothers’ dominance and Marc’s evolution as a rider.

🗣️ “Álex’s race was spectacular — he managed it perfectly. At first saving the tyres with Marc, then halfway through he unleashed a crushing pace. He’s found the consistency he was missing early in the season. Now he’s unstoppable.”

🗣️ “Marc showed something different. At Ducati, he’s matured. He knows when to calm his nerves, when not to let his ego take over, and to finish strong without risking everything. That shows he’s a complete rider.”

Pol also emphasized the scale of the Márquez brothers’ achievements:

🗣️ “We’re all talking about Marc’s title, but Álex is consolidating second place in the championship. That’s huge. He practically has it in his grasp.”

On the bigger picture, Pol made it clear only KTM can truly challenge Ducati right now:

🗣️ “The only factory capable of fighting Ducati in these races is us, KTM. After Bastianini, the first non-Ducati was Quartararo, over 14 seconds behind. That shows how tough it is.”

Finally, he urged fans not to take this Spanish golden era for granted:

🗣️ “Maybe we’re experiencing it, but not believing it. We’ve normalized Spaniards winning every weekend — but go ask an American or an Italian, they’d love to be in this position. We should enjoy it more.”

🗣️ "Quartararo is the only one who, in terms of pure talent, has nothing to envy Marc Márquez." — Carlo Pernat

Carlo Pernat, unable to attend Misano due to health issues, gave his perspective on MotoGP’s current landscape. He praised Enea Bastianini, who finally took a podium in Barcelona despite years of bad luck:
🗣️ "That kid has monstrous talent. Fate always put obstacles in his way, but he never complained, always fought, and always got back up."

Pernat believes Bastianini could still deliver big joy in 2025, calling him a future world champion.

On Marc Márquez, he dismissed fan narratives about symbolism:
🗣️ "Marc doesn’t give a damn about this nonsense. When he puts on his helmet, he has only enemies, no relatives."
He expects Márquez to win in Japan, making victory at Honda’s home a poetic highlight.

Looking at Ducati’s 2026 seat alongside Marc, Pernat broke it down:

❤️ Heart → Enea Bastianini

🧠 Logic → Pedro Acosta

✨ Instinct → Fabio Quartararo

And on Fabio:
🗣️ "It’s a sporting sin to see Fabio on a bike that doesn’t let him show his talent."

🏍️ "Less than half a second off my lap time with the current M1" — Fabio Quartararo on Yamaha’s new V4

Fabio Quartararo sets a clear goal for the Misano test:
🗣️ "If I'm within half a second of my current pace, it's a good step forward."

The V4 will debut with Augusto Fernández as a wild card at the San Marino GP before Quartararo’s full test. Yamaha insists the bike must match or beat the M1 to race in 2026.

Quartararo stresses the need for power:
🗣️ "Even if the bike is fast, without maximum power it’s not a combat bike."

The historic Inline-4, in use since 2002, may soon give way to a new era for Yamaha.

🗣️ "Marc Márquez dominates with a tire that was like a rock for us." — Pol Espargaró

Pol Espargaró battled Pecco Bagnaia at Balaton Park, regaining position on the final lap:
🗣️ "He braked late at Turn 5 and went wide. I took the chance and got back in."

On tire strategy:
🗣️ "Marc warmed up a medium tire that felt like a rock for us and kept an incredible pace."

Espargaró praised KTM’s progress and focused on learning for Barcelona:
🗣️ "It'll be interesting to see how strategies evolve and how we apply lessons from Balaton."

🗣️ "Marc started to be a problem for me a couple of laps before the overtake." — Marco Bezzecchi

Marco Bezzecchi claimed third at the Hungarian GP after leading early but losing positions to Marc Márquez and Pedro Acosta.

🗣️ "I knew Marc would catch me once he passed Morbidelli. My rear tire was wearing, and he was much stronger."

Despite challenges, Bezzecchi praised Aprilia's progress and his team’s work:
🗣️ "The team is working very well. I must keep this focus and push even harder."

On Ducati’s level:
🗣️ "From what Marc is showing, we're not closer yet. But we’ll keep improving to close the gap."
