A remarkable and unexpected silly season rumour involving 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Pecco Bagnaia has been shared in Italy.

The MotoGP season is into its annual rider market phase where teams and riders are considering whaജt to do, and where to go, in 2026.

Unlike some, Bagnaia’s future is rock solid with a factory Ducati contract which lasts until the end of next year.

However, that hasn’t ඣstopped a rival manufacturer admiring Bagnaia and imagining him riding their bike.

Pecco Bagnaia is Yamaha’s ‘forbidden dream’

Yamaha are the manufacturer wish🐼i🅘ng they could lure Bagnaia, report.

Remarkably they are hoping to tempt him “maybe as early as 2026”, 𒅌according to Sky Italia.

Bagnaia has been described as a “forbidden dream” for Yamaha by the s🧜urprising report from his𓆉 home country.

That is because Yamaha know that Bagnaia’s relationship with Ducati “remains excellent” despite the difficult season he is enduri𓄧ng.

But Paolo Pavesio wants to make a𝓀 hug🉐e first move as the top boss at Yamaha since replacing Lin Jarvis.

The manufacturer wants two elite riders on their factory 🌟bike - Fabio Quartararo “is not enough”, the report claims.

Yamaha see a second top rider as essential to reclaiming their old status as MotoGP🔴’s top brand.

Bagnaia is the ꧃rider “for whom Yamaha would make any effort, economic and technical”, Sky Italia report.

Yamaha is also, of course, ꧙where Bagnaia's mentor Valentino Rossi enjoyed his heyday.

Yamaha eye-catching but Pecco Bagnaia’s status on contracts is clear

Yamaha ha💫ve been pr🗹ogressing as an impressive rate in 2025.

This year, they have added Pramac as a satellite team to double their qua🤡ntity of riders and data. In the background they are working on a V4 engine but continue to improve the current package.

Quartarജaro has claimed three MotoGP pole positions consecutively. His lap record at Silverstone was proof of what his Yamaha can do under certain conditions.

Quar𓂃tararo looked set to win the British MotoGP - which would have been a major moment in Yamaha’s revival - until a ride height device problem halted him, and reduced him to tears.

Me📖anwhile, Bagnaia is struggling to tame♓ his Ducati GP25. Even Marc Marquez found issues with it at Silverstone.

Bagnaia is third in the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:MotoGP standings, 72 points off leader Marc Marquez.

But his words about Jorge Martin’s supposedꦿ🅷 exit from Aprilia make it clear tha𒁃t he won’t be leaving Ducati before his own deal expires at the end ܫof 2026.

“When you have a co෴ntract you need to follow it, you cannot cancel it,” Bagnaia s𓆏aid.

“In my opinion, if you take the words about something and🦹 if you sign something, you must respect it.”

Not what Yamaha want to hear.

He might be a dream signing for t🍸hem. But surely a rumour which will remain a dream only.
