Prediction for a game-changing MotoGP rule-change is made
Tip for a new rule in the next era of MotoGP
A rule-change has been tipped for the next era of MotoGP.
The prediction has been made after confirmation that MotoGP will use Pirelli as 💟its exclusiv🌃e tyre supplier from 2027.
Pirelli will replace Michelin, who currently provid﷽e the rubber for every MotoGP bike.
The switc꧂h has been welcomed by paddock insiders - even if it might lead to an intriguing new rule.
“I am really pleased. I like a shake-up,” TN♉T Sports’ Neil Hodgson said.
“Michelin produced a really good rear tyre. Unfortunately - and it’s not down to them, it’s because of how these bikes have evolved - they haven’t produced a front tyre that doesn’t overheat. 🔜So we’ve had some boring races.

“We sat back and waited for Michelin to produce this tyre. You have to qu♏estion ‘will it come at all?’
“They ꦰhave had 11 years, we have had some fantastic races. I am ready for chang🐼e. Pirelli has shaken up Moto3 and Moto3.
“Pirelli’ꦿs ethos is to provide a tyre for riders to achieve a quick lap time. Sometimes꧅ they don’t last the race distance.
“We will see more exciting races where 𝓡a rider can use his skill to save a tyre. We’ve got a lot to look for𒐪ward to.”
