Pol Espargaro will have an addꦕitional role as a TV broadcaster this y🎃ear.

He will become part ꦐof the presentation team for Spanish TV channel DAZN's coverage of MotoGP.

Esparg🎐aro is joining a line-up which already includes Dani Pedrosa and Jorge Lorenzo.

Espargaro has spent the past 10 ꧒years as 🍨a full-time MotoGP rider but, this season, has lost his Tech3 GASGAS seat to Pedro Acosta.

He will remain as a test and re💝serve rider for KTM and Tech3 GASGAS but will now have an additional role to fulfil inside the paddock.

“I'm going to continue being at the circuits🧜, it was something very 🍌important," Espargaro explained. 

"Before there were things that could escape you, but here they don't escape you, you see them instantly and you can communicatꦕe in a more direct way. 

"I take it as a new proje🎉ct, I hope I am qualified to do it, but it will undoubtedly be something new and difficult. See you under the lights of Qatar."

Esparga🌊ro, now 32, won the Moto2 title in 2013 before progressing into the premier c𒁏lass.

✤He represented Yama🌸ha, Honda and KTM in two stints.

But the emergence of the brilliant teenager Acosta resulted in KTM selecting Espargaro as the rider who would miss out o🧔n a full-time race seat.

Instead, he can now have one eye on the🌌 future with a new gig ﷽in the TV world.
