MotoGP, what a revolution: the news that displaces fans

The MotoGP could experience a real revolution from 2027. In fact, according to reports from Motorsport.com, among the ideas being discussed by organizers, teams and manufacturers is to reduce from two to just one bike available for each rider during race weekends.

The main objective would be to lower the teams’ costs. In fact, with only one bike in the box, fewer components, less material and also fewer engineers in the team would be needed. The proposal is part of the negotiations that will define the future of MotoGP in the period between 2027 and 2031.

To become official, this change will have to be approved by the top leadership of the GP Commission, the body that decides on regulatory changes in the championship. However, if the project goes ahead, MotoGP would move closer to the system already used in Moto2 and Moto3 since 2010, where each rider already has only one bike.

Such a choice would completely change the teams’ strategies. If today riders can use two bikes with different settings, quickly switching between them depending on track conditions, with only one bike available everything would become more complicated, especially in flag-to-flag races. From 2027 this possibility could disappear.

The new regulations could therefore mark one of the most important transformations in recent years. In fact, for the next season there will also be major changes regarding the displacements, it will go from 1000cc to 850cc. But not only that, the rider market has never shown so much movement in the last decade: however, among the most recent rumors is the one concerning Fabio Di Giannantonio, who will move from the VR46 team (Ducati) to the official KTM.
