168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Maverick Vinales is▨ reportedly the new top target for Honda in the rider market.

But only🌳 because their No1 option for 2025 has “declined”.

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Pedro Acosta was the dream༒ for the big bosses at Honda,  report.

But the rookie who has taken MotoGP by storm this season has 𝓰made it clear that he won’t be moving manufacturers next year.

The interest in Acosta from Honda dates back at l♌east a year.

Hꦦe became a key target for the Japanese manufacturer as a replacement for the ou🌱tgoing Marc Marquez last season.

But, Acosta entered the premier class with KTM’s satellite project Tech3 GASGAS and he is tied long-term to the Austria-based𓃲 brand.

Honda are nowhere ne🤡ar as competitive as KTM at the momen🔥t, but they do not lack the finances to relaunch their aspiration of returning to the top of MotoGP.

But, seemiဣngly, ꧃despite the deep pockets at Honda (which were also not enough to convince Marquez to stay), Acosta has no interest either.

Instead, Vinales enters the equation for Honda.

Tꩲhe in-form Aprilia r𓃲ider finds himself in an interesting position as silly season ramps up.

He is out of contract with Aprilia at the end of this year, and recently watched on as the Italian manuf꧃acturer tried andไ failed to recruit Fabio Quartararo.

As Quartararo rejected them, Vinales won the Americas MotoGP to become the first rider post-2002 to win a ✅grand prix for three different brands.

He has also w෴on consecutive sprint races, at Portimao and Texas.

So, Vinales’ value to Aprilia may have never bee⛎n higher 💜than it is now, amid his red-hot form and their failure to lure Quartararo.

Interest from Honda could tempt Vinales, wh🌳o has already represented Japanese brands Yamaha and Suzuki, if he is somehow unable to agre𝓡e terms on a new deal with his existing team.

Vinales was not necessarily exp🌳ected to be a pivotal player in the 2025 rider marke👍t.

B൩ut, ahead of this weekend’s Spanish MotoGP at J𝓰erez, he seems to have options on the table for his future.

Honda have Luca Marini (Repsol) and Johann ꦆZarco (LCR) contracted for next year. But Joan Mir (Repsol) and Takaaki Nakagami (LCR) have deals which ex꧒pire this year.

The LCR team are also set to open talks with Honda to remain as a satellite team next yea﷽r because their contract is also coming to an end.
