Fabio Quartararo warns Yamaha “I have no more time” and says 2026 V4 MotoGP project must deliver.
Fabio Quartararo is demanding that Yamaha and technical director Max Bartolini produce a successful V4 MotoGP project by 2026, emphasizing that time is running out for him. Quartararo, a Yamaha rider since 2019, achieved rapid success from his debut season to winning the world title in 2021, but Yamaha’s competitiveness declined after mid-2022. With just four podium finishes since then, Quartararo expressed the urgency for victories starting next year. Yamaha’s shift towards a V4 concept, to be introduced in 2026, is crucial for Quartararo’s expectations of competitiveness and enjoyment on the track. Quartararo’s decision to stay with Yamaha was influenced by the upcoming changes and the need for a winning project to bring back his enjoyment and competitive edge in MotoGP.
