Teams keen to keep five-year rules cycle in MotoGP
Yamaha MotoGP boss Paolo Pavesio emphasizes the importance of maintaining the five-year rules cycle for sustainability in MotoGP, contrasting it with Formula 1’s approach. Despite the five-year cycle theoretically keeping costs down, recent advancements in aero and ride height devices have posed challenges. The upcoming regulations reset in 2027 is expected to address these issues, influencing the quality of racing. In F1, major technical changes occur in cycles, with the next overhaul scheduled for 2026 following the shift to ground effect rules in 2022. Pavesio stresses that MotoGP needs to stay separate from F1’s technical regulations to ensure sustainable investment and uphold competitive spirit while designing rules. The need for stable rules to support long-term investment and show development is crucial for both MotoGP and F1.
