Yamaha will reporte🧔dly miss out on their big hope of acquiring a satellite team for next season.

The Japanese ꦡmanufacturer, after signing star r🐭ider Fabio Quartararo to a big-money new contract, has prioritised adding two extra bikes to their ranks for 2025.

Yꦦamaha were rejected unexpectedly by VR46 despite t🐎he mutual link of Valentino Rossi.

They turned their attention to Pramac and are wa𓆉iting to hear back after making an attractive offer.

But “something happened” in Le Mans last weekend, according to ,꧑ which increased Pramac’s chances of sta💙ying with Ducati from 50-50 to 95%.

A Yamaha staff member was quoted:🤡 "Our first alternative was always VR46, bu﷽t we couldn't convince them.

“So plan B is Pramac, and we hope they will accept th♏e offer we hꦑave made them."

But Yamaha also admitted: "There is no plan C.

"We are hopeful that Pramac will accept our offer, which is very interesting. Otherwise we don't 🌊have an al𝓀ternative in mind."

Yamaha are now set to be the “big loser” of this ongoing saga, and will be forced to stick with just two bikes in the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:2025 MotoGP rider line-up.

Pramac have until the end of July to confirm to Ducati whether tᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚhey activate a clause in their contract🐽 to remain with the manufacturer for two more years.

If Pramac decide to stay, they are expected to retain access to factory-sp♏ec bikes.

But Paolo Campinoti reportedly entertained the offer from Yamaha because of competꦬition between Pramac and VR46 within the Ducati c♋lan.

He was♔ not confident of his team’s ability to retain their status within Ducati after 🦩2026, when the new MotoGP regulations kick in.

Campinoti was “seriously considering” the off🃏er to switch to Yamaha next year.

That is now se🎃emingly less and less likely to happen.

Ducati are carefullꦗy ♌balancing this issue over their satellite teams with their big rider decision.

Enea B🍸astianini, Jorge Martin and Marc Marquez all want the 2025 factory bike.

A Plan B - at least for Bastianini or Marquez - could 🌃be Pramac, if they stay with Ducati.

But if they don’t, options for the riders would dramatical💞ly change.

Meanwhile, Yamaha will be forced to 💞endure a setback in their recovery plans. The addition of a satellite team was reportedly “one of the arguments” that convinced Quartararo to sign a new deal.
