Factory duo 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jack Miller and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Brad Binder, Tech3 GASGAS pair 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Pol Espargaro and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Augusto Fernandez, and Moto2 graduate Pedro Acosta are all contracted for a premier class seat in th🌞e 2024 MotoGP rider line-up.

However, Dorna CEO Carmelo Ezpeleta has again refused KTM’s wish to🐻 have a fifth bike next season - but he has offered them hope with a new idea.

"Let's see i𝔍f it's clear,” Ezpeleta was quoted by about KTM expanding their presence on the grid.

“There has ౠnever bee🤡n a fifth bike for KTM and there isn't one. Okay? 

“I don't know where you gꦚet that from because I've told e🧸veryone who has asked me: There are no more bikes because the existing system is working very well.

“Independent teams have rights and value that they would not have if you 🍷gave everyone who arrived a ▨motorcycle.

Ezpeleta said about how KTM can solve the issue of having an extra rider: "That's not a problem. It's as if Barcelona had 1ꦦ2 players and said: 'Now what do we do🎉?' 

“Well, one stays on the bench. Well, it's the same.&nbs🔯p;

“They have four positions and five riders. 

“I think that having, in a world championship as long as we have now,♓ having five riders prepared to be able to get on any of those four bikes, is a good solution💦. 

“That, together with the fact that there are some wild cards, as it will help all the riders to be busy 🌞for most of the time.

“We are goi♔ng to propose that the💫re be more wild cards. 

“These are not co🔜ncessions, they are wild cards for everyone.”

The quantity of injuries this season in MotoGP, and the add🤪ition of sprint races💟 into the format, has been plenty of reserve riders competing in races.

This weekend💖 at the Cataluny💙a MotoGP for example, Iker Lecuona will fill in for Alex Rins again.

I💖t will be Lecuona’s fifth Mot🦋oGP outing of the season.

So, KTM could use one of their five contracted riderꦬs in a ‘reserve’ role, ready to step in for either their factory or satellite teams in the case of an injury.

And the addition of extra wildcards means that the reserve rider could rack up 🎉the equivalent of half-a-season or more, depending on injuries.

Now, KTM must work out which of their five riders - Miller, Binder, Espaꦺrgaro, Fernandez or Acosta - to use in that role.
