The 2025 MotoGP season has seen significant changes, with Yamaha preparing for a technical overhaul. During a private test in Valencia, two new motorcycles were rolled out, powered by V4 engines. One model has a 1000cc displacement, potentially race-ready by 2026, while the other is an 850cc prototype built to align with 2027 regulations. This move signals Yamaha’s commitment to change and acknowledges that their current inline-four package is no longer competitive at the top level. The V4 project, partly in collaboration with Marmomotors, has the potential to redefine the manufacturer’s MotoGP future. However, the cautious optimism raises questions about how long it will take to catch up to Ducati, KTM, and Aprilia.
