The CEO of Dorna has hinted at a timeline for B🔯MW’s decision about whether to enter MotoGP.

A change in the management structure of the famous manufacturer💛 has increased the possibility that they could enter the world’s top two-wheel racing series.

MotoGP will introduce new technical regulations from 2027, which could level the playing field and offer the best possible time for newcomers to immediately be competiti💎ve.

“It’s one t🐼hing for it to be possible, and another for it to be feasible,” Carmelo Ezpeleta said about BMW’s entry to .

“Obviously we have to wait for the new regﷺulations which wi🐎ll be published soon.

“I thin𓂃k we won’t have to wait more than a month, a month and a half, and then the manufacturers can consider the possibilities.

“It would be important for other manufacturers to come in. And BMW is a very importan𒁃t manufacturer.”

BMW previously knocked back the possibiꩲlity of replacing Suzuki, who quit MotoGP.

But they have found success in WorldSBK, claiming the♛ir first race since coming back as a factory team through Toprak Razgatlioglu this season.

But it is the introduction of Markus Flasch as the newꦇ boss at BMW Mo𒐪torrad which has accelerated the possibility of entering MotoGP.

A racing enthusia𝕴st, he has publicly ope꧃ned the door to an entry.

“2027 could be꧒ the perfect time 🐓to get involved in MotoGP as this is when a new regulation will be introduced,” Flasch is quoted by .

"We are in contact with Dorna and we are talking about the regulaܫtions.

“It is part of our evaluation.

“The 2027 season would be aꦏn obvious🏅 time to start.

“But that does not 🔜pressure us to make a decision.”
