How the 2025 MotoGP rider market could impact WorldSBK
With the 2025 MotoGP grid undergoing big❀ developments in recent days, wuqian0821.com assesses the impact it could have on♓ WorldSBK.

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Jorge Martin to Aprilia and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Marc Marquez to the factory Ducati team has breathed new life into the 2025 MotoGP rider market, but it’s f🦩air to say a lot more is yet to unravel.
Martin completed a shock switch to Aprilia on Monday after Ducati changed their minds and made Marquez their✱ priority.
The eight-time world champion then completed hi🥃s expected move from Gresini to the Lenovo Ducati team on Wednesday.
But with a lot of MoཧtoGP riders potentially looking for new homes as the season wears on, WorldSBK could b💛e the big beneficiary.
Not all the current MotoGP riders that will 🧜be out of contract at the end of this season will be staying in the prem♛ier class, thus making a switch to WorldSBK a vey realistic proposition.
Two factory teams in WorldSBK already have their line-up for 2025 confirmed, with Honda (Iker Lecuona and Xavi Vierge) and Yamaha (Jonathan Rea and Andrea Locatelli) ꧟in place.
But with some MotoGP riders potentially ♎available, there could be a lot🔥 of movement.
Ducati still holds most of the cards as changes will take place at Prꦇamac, Gresini and potentially VR46.
Aprilia, Honda are ꧒also expected to make changes, while the GASGAS KTM team won’t be staying the same either.
Here are some of the riders w🎶e believe could be on the move to WorldSBK, including the team’s they could sig🦂n for.
But who are the names to watch?
Miguel Oliveira
Following a ꧋difficult start to 2024 with the new Trackhouse Racing Aprilia team, Oliveira’s future remains up in the air.
Yet to get close to a top five finish, Oliveira has not had the pace of Maverick Vinales and Aleix Espargaro, while team-mate Raul Fernande🍬z has begun to put-perform the former KTM ride🍌r in recent rounds.
It remains to be seen what Trackhouse does with its 🍬line-up, but Joe Roberts ♌is expected to fill one of those spots.
That could leave Oliveira with the option of returning to KTM with GASGAS, a move to one of Ducati’s🃏 satellꦺite teams (which is unlikely), or switching to WorldSBK.
BMW, Ducati and Kawasaki have places available in their factory teams as it stands and could be options if Oliveira can’t find a Mot꧅oGP seat.
Jack Miller
A shocking start to 2024 for the Australian has left Miller very much on𒊎 the outside looking in regarding seats in 𝓰MotoGP.
Given Australia’s extensive presence in the Superbike cham𒁏pionship throughout the championship’s history, Miller could use it as a chance to rejuvenate his career with a potential move to Ducati.
Miller could be the big name Ducati wants if Alvaro Bautista haไngs up his racing boots, however, BMW could also be an option.
Andrea Iannone, who has be🎃en linked with a𝔉 return to MotoGP, could be Miller’s main competition for a factory Ducati seat.
Augusto Fernandez

Perhaps the most likely rider to not be in MotoGP next season, 🏅Augusto Fernandez would be an obvious choice for any𝕴 team with any satellite seats available, if not a factory opening.
Fernandez is a Moto2 world champion and flashed potentia♈l on several occasions as a MotoGP rookie last season.
However, his second year in the premier class has not gone according to ꦑplan and a move away looks rather ominous.
Takaaki Nakagami
With Honda’s full ꦿfactory team already set for next season, pict♋uring Nakagami at the Japanese brand has been made harder.
But Kawasaki and Yamaha coꦍuld be options for the 32-year-old who continues to struggle as a result of Honda’s MotoGP w♛oes.
The GRT Yamaꦜha team could be one to watch if they move on from Dominique Aegerter, who has struggled so far in 2024.
