B🧔ut Yamaha are also improving their current inline-4, team boss Massimo Mere﷽galli confirmed.

“The testing team is busy developing both,” he said. “The curr♓ent bike [Inline-4] and the new bike [V4 engine]. With the new bike we have done only a functionality test.

“We are not in the moment to evaluate the perfor🍸mance. The factory guys will test this bike only when wܫe believe the performance is good enough to feel it, to understand it.”

Yamꦡaha’s test in Barcelona was in addition to the official MotoGP Aragon test 💎on Monday.

Concessions rules allow Yamaha and Honda extra days of testing to fast-track their improv🥀eme🌃nt.

“It’s always important to test,” Meregalli said. “Y🏅ou don’t have enꦯough time for testing anywhere, anytime.

If you see th🐷e final race results - we cannot sa🌠y it has been positive.”

Meregalli spotted a difference between Yamaha’s efforts at the Aragon MotoGP this year♑ compared to 2024.

“But if we compare it to last year? We f🍌inished with a gap of 39s, but [this year] was 19s,” he said.

“The fastest lap last year was 1.3s, [this year] was less than four tenths. This is where we are monitoring the improvement of th🐓e bike. Fabio did a really good lap time. I liked how, on Friday we struggled, but on Saturday we got into Q2 to start the race from the third row.

“We had some updates in the engine, just little updates. We always explore set-ups that we c💃annot do during the🐻 race weekend. The plan was longer than the time we had!

“O꧃ur way to work is: if they feel no negatives, then it’s the path we work with. It’s a matter of fine-tuning.”
