Overview
- LCR Honda confirmed Diogo Moreira for 2026, completing the entry list.
- Only two rookies will join next season: Toprak Razgatlioglu at Pramac Yamaha and Moreira at LCR Honda.
- Pramac renewed Jack Miller, which cost Miguel Oliveira his seat and sends him toward a BMW move in WorldSBK.
- All factory line-ups remain unchanged for 2026, with Ducati keeping Marc Marquez alongside Francesco Bagnaia and KTM retaining Pedro Acosta with Brad Binder.
- Most rider contracts end after 2026, and teams are planning around 2027 rules that introduce 850cc engines, tighter aero, a ban on ride-height devices, and Pirelli tyres.
