Before we even got to Round 1 of the year in Qatar, MotoGP™’s silly season was in full flow. Reigning World Champion Fabio Quartararo is yet to sign a new deal with Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP™, and it’s not a given that he will. Jack Miller (Ducati Lenovo Team) won two races last year and finished fourth in the World Championship. Pol Espargaro’s Repsol Honda Team seat has been a hot topic during pre-season. But that seems less likely than it did a month ago, with Espargaro impressing on the new RC213V. The natural fit would be Yamaha because that’s who he races for in the WorldSBK paddock, and that’s who he has a Test booked in for during this season.
