This 🌜season Miller is partnering titl༺e contender Bagnaia in the Lenovo Ducati Team, Bastianini is with Gresini Racing and Martin is with Pramac Racing.

Miller, speaking earlier this se💞ason, said about his chances of being retaiಞned by Ducati: “I do the best I can for the company. I am a liked person, people like me a lot.

“I ෴sell a lot more motorcycles tha꧂n other people do. And that’s a big thing in this business.

“So, for sure, I have 🥂a lot of fac🃏tors coming in my way.”

Miller heads into his home race, the Australian MotoGP, this weekend. ꦕSince confirming that his days with Ducati are numbered he has registe🍨red his best results of the season - the Aussie won the Japanese MotoGP and finished second in Thailand in consecutive races.

Bastianini, though, has hღad a breakthrough season with four victories (Qaꦆtar, America, France, Aragon).

“If you look at results, Enea deserves the place and I don’t,” said Martin, who has been on the podium three times in 2022, earlier this year. “But if you look inside, I think it’s a differenﷺt story. He has a really good bike. With that bike, I did those things last year.”

Ducati boss Davide Tardozzi described their three-way decision between Bastianini, Mil🔯ler an🔥d Martin: “It’s a problem that everybody would like to have.

“Some people 🃏may say that we are managing a problem. But it is such a nice problem to manage.”

Miller then revealed how he broke the news to hisꦏ Ducati bosses that he would switch to KTM: “What makes me hungry? What will motivate me the best in the years to come?

“I🐓 went to speak with them all after I made my decision. I explained that I won’t be here next year. I hav♐e decided to go elsewhere, and that’s it.”

Miguel Oliveira, whose KTM seat Miller will inherit when the Portuguese rider moves to Apriliaಞ, teased Miller: “I hopꦑe you enjoy it more than me!”
