Overview
- Yamaha and Prima Pramac announced on Thursday that Jack Miller will end his MotoGP collaboration at the close of the 2026 season.
- Pramac confirmed that Moto2 frontrunner Izan Guevara will move up to take Miller’s seat for 2027, pairing with Toprak Razgatlıoğlu in the satellite Yamaha squad.
- Miller’s departure follows a difficult 2026 campaign with limited results and comes after the team credited him for technical feedback and development work on Yamaha’s project.
- Multiple outlets report that Miller is widely expected to join Yamaha’s factory WorldSBK programme next year, though that move has not been formally announced.
- Teams say the 2027 rule and tyre changes create fresh opportunities for rookies like Guevara while the ban on MotoGP wildcards will limit returning race chances for riders who switch to WorldSBK.
