Morbidelli has improved his performances relative to that of teammate Fab🦋io Quartararo this season, however, the Italian is still under pressure to keep his factory MotoGP seat.

One contender in Toprak Razgatlioglu is no more, after the 2021 world champi💙on elected to remain in the Superbike paddock with BMW next season.

However, Morbidelli could still lose his seat to the likes of Jorge Martin, wit🎐h the Spaniard heavily linked to the Yamaha team. 

But Morbidelli still feels as though he’s in a position to remain with Yamaha a♏nd claims rumours fuel his motivation.

Speaking to , Morbidelli said: "People making up rumours of🍨 other riders in your spot gives you extra motivation because you want to show yourself and to other people that you’re in the place [you should] be in."

Yamaha have ♏already stated that continuing with Morbidelli is their number one priority, so if the 2020 runner-up can match the results of Quartararo going forward, that should likely be enough to guarantee his future with the Japanese manufacturer for at least another year. 

"If I look at the performance compared to my teammate it’s not so bad," added Morbidelli. "We were able to get much closer. 🦩Fabio has done such great things to get his credibility high in the last few years. I have done too little to have my credibility high. 

"He’s a world champion and is the guy to take out the potential from the bike. It’s complicated to take out potential from the package [we have] clearly the way of working is there and that 🌺is easy for everybody to understand. 

"If yꩲou are no♈t on top it means you need to work harder. I feel like I need to give a little more to keep my spot and to try and achieve what I want to achieve with this team. 

"I feel as though matching the performance of Fabio ไis already a good achievement."

If Morbidelli does leave𝄹 Yamaha, then options should be there for the Italian even if his form has dipped quite considerably꧒ since 2021.

Asked where he could see himself, Morbidelli🌄 gave a short, but to the point answer: "On a MotoGP [bike] for sure."
