168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jorge Martin will reportedly have the option to go 🤪to Yamaha nex𒈔t year.

As it stands, moving from Pramac Ducati to the struggling Japanese brand would mean swapping MotoGP’s best bike for one of its worst.

But much can 🧸change in a year and, according to , 𒆙Yamaha are keeping an eye on Martin’s situation.

The 2023 MotoGP 🌊runner-up m🍬issed out twice on a promotion to the factory Ducati team and has made it clear that, unless he wears red in 2025, he will quit the sport’s dominant manufacturer.

“In Iwata they are preparing🍰 the budget” to tempt M🅠artin across to Yamaha, the report states.

Bไut Martin is “mainly interested in the bike” so Yamaha face extra p♏ressure to improve the M1.

Moving from a Ducati satellite team t꧃o a factory squad would result in a pay rise, as Luca ♊Marini is reportedly enjoying since swapping VR46 for Honda.

The other side of the coin is that Martin would likely fi💫nd himself on a less competitive bike next season.

But if he is intent on leaving 🐠Ducati to pursue a factory position, where else makes sense?

Even KTM and Aprilia, despite outperforming Yamaha and Honda, lag🀅 behind the year-old Ducati bikes (except in the case of Brad Binder in Qatar).

Ducati have c🍬onfirmed the arrival of Fermin Aldeguer in 2025 and, although they haven't confirmed which team he will be placed in, the likely landing spot is Pramac.

That means either🌺 Martin or teammate Franco Morbidelli is out of a seat next year.

Aldeguer's arrival into the mix at Ducati has increased the stakes and perhaps incentivised ♍other manufacturers to tempt away riders with knowledge of the Desmosedici.

Yamaha know that they face a battl💝e to keep their own star rider, Fabio🀅 Quartararo. Aprilia are believed to have an interest in him.

Should they lose Quartararo, it would free up budget to land another biᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚg name like Martin.

Yamaha could even have an extra two seats in 2025 if they agree terms 🌄t🔯o take over the VR46 satellite team.

VR46 (who currently have Marco Bezzecchi and Fabio di Giannantonio as their riders) are in talks to stay at Ducati but still haven’t ꦜsigned, and Valentino Rossi maintains obvious links to Yamaha.
