With the majority of the ไMotoGP grid into the final year of their current contracts, a major reshuffle could take place for 2025.

While many riders will eagerly dream of a much better bike or a new team, others will simply be desperately🐽 hoping t😼o stay put.

Augusto Fernandez admits th🎶e harsh reality of trying to maintain his place in the premier class amid such intense competition.

The Tech3 GASGAS rider was the Moto2 champion in 2022 and is now into h🐼is seco🍰nd season in MotoGP.

But his te♓ammate this year is the incredible Pedro Acosta who is receiving rave reviews.

Fernandez, meanwhile, finished 17th in Qatar and 11t🐠h in Portugal.

He told about receiving a new contract for next year: "Of course, there is no need to♌ fool yourself here.

“If you don't have speed and you don't run, no help will come and next year there൲ will be no contract.

“It is clear that💟 it is a decisive year and you have to hurry up to be there.

“I am the f🐼irst one who doesn't want to be so far behind.”

Fernandez knows that KTM haven’t been sh🦄y in axing riders in the past in pursuit of excellence.

The rise of Acosta means that his Tech3 teammate Fernandez will also rec🦄eive parts from the factory KTM team that he might not have enjoyed last year.

But, on paper and in the results column, Fernandez is the low𒅌est♍ priority of KTM’s four riders.

"It's a difficult moment," he admitted.

"It's my second year and it's hard for me to admit it✅, but it's like starting from scratch.

“We're half a second away from being in the top 10 and we're going to start there, work to get closer to the poꦑiꦯnts and build from there."
