Yamaha boss Massimo Meregalli says the Japanese brand is “trying to learn from both” of its MotoGP engine projects to improves its results i🎐n 2025.

After two difficult years where it fell off the front of the grid, Yamaha has enjoyed an upturn in results in 2025.

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Fabio Quartararo has sc♐ored two pole positions from the first six rounds and ended Yamaha’s two-year podium drought with a ride to second at the Spanish Grand Prix.

It comes as Yamaha is concurrently developing its current bike whi♛le also working on its first V4 prototype, whic🌠h it could race in 2026 ahead of the 2027 850cc regulation change.

Yamaha work on two engine projects

Despite the work being had on its ᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚV4, ♏Yamaha brought an updated version of its inline four-cylinder engine to last weekend’s French Grand Prix.

Meregalli says t𒈔he work Yamaha is doing “is a double job” but hopes both engine programmes can benefit each other.

“This new engine specification is just slightly mo✅re powerful without any negative points because driveability is much more important than the power,” he told TNT Sport at the French GP, after Quartararo qꦿualified on pole.

“And theꦉ feeling 💯all the riders had in Jerez was positive.

“We al🍷so expected the same from the data. And we were able to seal this new engine specification for a🎀ll the riders.

“It’s another small upd🐼ate, as we keep improving the bike, wi🧸th the electronics.

“We will have a test in Misano where we will evaluate 💖some new components.

“It’s a double job because we are developing this current bike 🔯but also the other one.

“So, we’re trying to learn form both. It’s an incredible effort that w⛄𝓰e are all putting in together.

“It’s rewarding, because now we can start seeing results and it’s g𒁃re💖at.”

Yamaha is locked in a tight battle for second in the constructors’ s⛎tandings r🐈ight now with Honda, KTM and Aprilia.
