Pramac Yamaha owner Paolo Campinoti recently revealed the uncertainty surrounding the 2025 rider lineup. With Jorge Martin leaving for Aprilia and the possibility of Franco Morbidelli returning being uncertain, several names have been considered.
Jack Miller, Fabio di Giannantonio and Andrea Iannone – despite his doping ban – are potential candidates. Campinoti mentioned: “Andrea Iannone is someone I personally like, but Yamaha will make the final decision.”
He categorically denied that Toprak Razgatlioglu would join the team. “Razgatlioglu will not ride for us,” Campinoti confirmed. The selection process will be concluded in the coming weeks. “We will decide in the coming weeks,” Campinoti added. “Our goal is to recruit the best talents for success.”
In a recent interview, Pramac Yamaha owner Paolo Campinoti addressed the uncertainty surrounding the team’s 2025 rider lineup. With Jorge Martin’s move to Aprilia confirmed and Franco Morbidelli’s future with the team in doubt, Campinoti has begun considering several potential candidates for the coveted seats.
Among the names circulating are Jack Miller, currently with KTM, and Fabio di Giannantonio, who rides for Gresini Ducati. Another surprising name on the list is Andrea Iannone, who has been suspended for four years due to a doping violation. Despite this, Iannone remains a figure of interest for Campinoti. “Andrea Iannone is someone I personally like a lot. His passion and talent are unquestionable, but in the end it will be Yamaha who makes the decision,” Campinoti said.
However, one name that has definitely been ruled out is Toprak Razgatlioglu. The Turkish rider, who is making waves in the Superbike World Championship, has been the subject of speculation as a possible contender for the Pramac Yamaha ride. Campinoti was clear on this point: “Razgatlioglu will not ride for us. He is a great rider, but he is not in our plans for 2025.”
As the MotoGP season progresses, the process of selecting new riders will be a key focus for the team. “We will decide in the coming weeks,” Campinoti added. “Our goal is to recruit the best talent available to ensure our continued success in the championship.”
With ambitions high for the team, the coming weeks will be crucial in shaping the future of Pramac Yamaha. Fans and analysts will be keen to see who ultimately rides the M1 bikes in 2025 as the team looks to maintain its competitive edge in MotoGP.
