The next question, if true, is who does Razgatlioğlu sign for? Yamaha, given that’s where he rides in WorldSBK, would surely be in pole position. But would Razgatlioğlu sign for a non-factory outfit? The murmurings last year suggested not. Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP have already signed Franco Morbidelli until the end of 2023, and alongside the Italian is current World Champion Fabio Quartararo – no space at the inn then, surely? Unless – like Andrea Dovizioso (WithU Yamaha RNF MotoGP Team) – Yamaha fancy luring Razgatlioğlu in with a full factory deal in their Independent Team, or Quartararo unexpectedly leaves Yamaha for whatever reason.
