Why Yamaha's new MotoGP team could axe both riders for 2026 [ad-free video]
🕑 Added 2025-07-03 13:32:45 +0000 UTCYamaha signing World Superbike mega-star Toprak Razgatlioglu for its 2026 MotoGP line-up ensured either Jack Miller or Miguel Oliveira would be squeezed out of their Pramac seat - and perhaps right out of MotoGP - after this season.
But now it seems neither is safe and Pramac could get a total line-up refresh. Val and Simon explain what's happening, give their takes, and hear from Yamaha boss Paolo Pavesio.

Sounds like Yamaha are getting ready or atleast preparing for a possible house clean.

This has been reported for a few weeks now. Unfair on Miller, though.
