MotꦕoGP’s next starlet could be at the centre of a tug-of-war between manufac𒁏turers.

David Alonso will step from wꦦinning Moto3 into Moto2 in 2025 but the premier class could also be very close.

He insists that ꦕa contractual clause would allow him to move into MotoGP in 2026, if he wins the Moto2 title at the first time.

“Yes. If so, I don't see it as very realistic, but yes, there is the option, yes,” Alonso told ꦛMarca.

“My contract is with Aspar. I don't know꧑. It would have to happen.

“It's true that Moto2 is a category where, like a guy like Johann Zarc൩o, even if you win and repeat and stay, it’s not a bad category to do itꦺ.

“Because it depends a little more on you, in terms of♏ pace.

“Aജnd it's a bit of the style, it's a good school for MotoGP in terms of riding.

“I mean, it doesn't hurt you [to stay longer].

“So, it is a ⛎category where staying one more year of your plans is not a problem either.”

If Alonso takes Moto2 by storm, he could find offers from MotoGP’s topꩵ manufacturers who will all be desperate to agree terms with a🍰 potential superstar.

This sea▨son, he beat Valentino Rossi’s tally of race wins in the Moto3 c🍌lass.

Alonso knows that the big guns in MotoGP will be watch🐎ing his progress in 2025.

“Well, very grateful that they are interested and it m𓃲eans that thing♔s are going well,” he said.

“That also allows y🍸o🐬u to understand that we are on a path, but that we have to keep working because if not...

“We didn't even get there and we still have to [keep chipping away]. We ꦡhave to keep there🥃 always trying to improve, now see what this new category is like. Grateful but we continue to work.”

Alonso described his riding style.

“My refereꦺnce is M🏅arc Marquez, but [in terms of] riding, maybe a bit like Pedro Acosta,” he said.

“I do🦋n't know, because I'm like a rider like that, [good on the brakes], who likes to do V-curves and I'm not so much into cornering. I try to be as complete as🌠 possible, but yes, maybe in Acosta style.”
