Carmelo Ezpeletꦍa has led negotiations to update the𝐆 current ruling in order to help Honda and Yamaha, the Japanese manufacturers who have fallen behind the Europeans in terms of competitiveness.

Although he w🦹on’t confirm the details of the new rule, he hopes that protracted negotiations will be signed off during the Valencia MoꦚtoGP.

“We are with the last adjustment now,” he told ꦉ. 

“It is senಌt to the brands and will be approved this weekend in Vale❀ncia.

“There has been a bit of discussion because KTM and A🐠prilia wanted more things to be taken awa♑y from Ducati.”

Ducati, as the most domi𝔉nant team of the year, could be hit with the sternest concessions in order to level the playing field.

Ezpele😼ta said: “I still have the theory that when there is a regulation in force, and everyone has complied with it, changing it is not right. 

“So what I have to d💝o is convince that it is good to change it. 

“Ducati is doing very well now and 🌟Ducati has not done anything that cannot be 🎃done. “Aerodynamics was for everyone and she knew how to take advantage of it as well as the systems to lower the suspensions. 

“I 🐠see that this i🥃s separating the championship a lot and I'm going to Ducati and I have to convince them first to let me make concessions.

“Honda and Ya💞maha gave us some concessions that al♊lowed everyone else to take a step forward. 

“Nobody remembers that before eight Hondas, eigh🉐t Yamahas and two Suzukis raced here, and that it was Honda and Yamaha that gave the OK so that the other bikes would have some advantages in training and other things. 

“That allowed Ducati, first, then Suzuki and then t🐼he others to raise the level. 

“I, since I am t🌜he same, cannot forget that. 

“What have I done? Try t✱o do this by c🙈onvincing Ducati to leave things to these factories and that they have a little less.”

Fabio Quartararo, in ninth, is the highest-placed rider from a J🍒apanese team in the current MotoGP standings.

Intriguingly Marc Marquez’s switch from Honda to Ducati in 2024 means he will go from a team who are set to benefit from co𒉰ncessions, to a team who will be prohibited by them.
