After the ‘Gardner Straight’, ‘Doohan Corner’ (Turn 1) and ‘Stoner Corner’ (Turn 3), Tu𒁏rn 4 hairpin at the famous seaside circ෴uit will now be officially titled ‘Miller Corner’.

Previously known as the Honda hairpin, Turn 4 features one of the few hard-braking zones of the circuit and is one🍰 of the main overtaking areas.

Four-time MotoGP race winner Milleꦉr, Australia’s most successful rider since Stoner, attended the renaming ceremony alongside circuit officials at lunchtime on Saturday.

Mil൲ler is currently fifth in the world championship and still in with a mathematical title chance.

The newly married 27-year-old, runner-up in Moto3 before starting his premier-class career with Honda in 2015, 𓃲will switch from Duca🌺ti to KTM next season.

Remy Gardner's departure for WorldSBK next season also means Miller will once again be the only Australian on the MotoGP grid in 𝓰202ꦜ3.
