Fabio Quartararo has proclaimed “I want to be a legend of this sport” - but that doesn’t mean he plans to chase Valentino Rossi’s records.

Factory test rider Cal Crutchlow has a key role to play in Yamaha’s technical push ahead of the 2023 MotoGP season.

From Brno 2020 to Jerez 2021, Franco Morbidelli stood on the MotoGP podium six times in 16 races, including three victories on his way to title runner-up in the shortened 'Covid' season.

Fabio Quartararo has revealed that he had the chance to quit Yamaha - and insists he doesn’t fear “change”.

Although reluctant to directly compare Fabio Quartararo with the likes of Casey Stoner and Valentino Rossi, Yamaha Racing managing director Lin Jarvis has no doubt that the Frenchman is an ‘extraordinary and exceptional’ MotoGP talent.

The only significant change to the MotoGP technical rules for the 2023 season is a controversial ban on the use of front ride-height devices.

Fabio Quartararo will pocket a reported €750,000 per season from a new helmet deal with the manufacturer HJC.

Imagine seeing your motorcycle vanish, with Valentino Rossi riding it, on a dark, wet, foggy night in Milan. 

Valentino Rossi’s girlfriend has explained her “anxiety” at watching him race, and explained their new life post-MotoGP.

Valentino Rossi has warned his old team Yamaha that they must “do more” because they are in “great difficulty”.

Fabio Quartararo may have won the 2021 MotoGP title, but by the second half of that season he was pleading for more engine performance to counter the formidable Ducati challenge in 2022.

Out of retirement for a gruelling end-of-season mix of six races plus private tests, Cal Crutchlow is relieved he won’t have to face next year’s biggest-ever MotoGP calendar.

A switch to Aprilia for the 2023 MotoGP season brought the curtain down on four years as a satellite Yamaha team for SRT/RNF. But the Yamaha association went much further back for team manager Wilco Zeelenberg.

Whatever the truth regarding the recent VR46 rumours, Yamaha Racing managing director Lin Jarvis has confirmed the factory is already looking for a new satellite MotoGP team.

How many Ducatis is too many Ducatis in MotoGP?

Franco Morbidelli’s struggles on this year's Yamaha MotoGP machine underline how the once famously smooth M1 has become too ‘aggressive’ in terms of riding style.

Fabio Quartararo may have been beaten to the 2022 MotoGP title by Francesco Bagnaia but Cal Crutchlow believes no other rider on the grid could have matched the Frenchman's performances on the M1 this year.

Toprak Razgatlioglu was among the early leaders of Saturday’s wet-dry opening race at the Phillip Island WorldSBK finale.

Francesco Bagnaia has more to smile about that just his first MotoGP championship.

Cal Crutchlow will miss “racing against people I don’t like”, he has admitted as he exits MotoGP.

Valentino Rossi has admitted he retired from MotoGP too late and has described how the championship has changed over the years.

Yamaha’s 2023 MotoGP engine is ‘85%' decided despite a mystifying lack of performance at the Valencia test.

Fabio Quartararo and his team’s emotional reaction to losing the MotoGP title fight has been revealed in newly released footage.

Francesco Bagnaia became the first rider to become MotoGP champion with five DNFs in the same season.
