The next MotoGP World Championship will have no more bikes. This was confirmed on Wednesday Carlos EzpeletaMotoGP sports director, in an interview with the program ‘entire coast‘ from Catalunya Radio where he also explained that formulas will be studied to help other teams catch up with Ducati.
“We are working hard to help not only Honda, but also Yamaha so they can get back to being competitive faster.. Honda and Yamaha have taken great care of dealership regulations in the past and that is important for Ducati to be competitive and for Suzuki to be very fast. And for KTM and Aprilia to officially enter the World Championship and be competitive. Other manufacturers will understand this as well. Dorna’s official position is that the concession system needs to be updated,” he said.
On the possibility of increasing the number of bikes next season, Ezpeleta is clear. “It is not expected that there will be more than 22 bikes next year. In fact, for us, the ideal is 20. As I understand it, we will have the pleasure of having Pedro Acosta in MotoGP, but then there are some talks between Pedro and his team and manufacturer.”
About the situation of Marc Márquezthe MotoGP sports director considered that “The level did not drop. He started the year with bad luck due to the accident in Portugal, but with all the desire and full competition in his personal performance. I think that Marc continues at the level of always”, and affirmed that “I think that Marc has another year of contract. If I know, I can’t say, but so far, I understand that what you say is right.”
