“I can’t say anything yet, but my future is clear,” the Spanish MotoGP rider was quoted by “motorsport-total.com” before Sunday’s race at Silverstone. “I signed for the next two years. There will be an official announcement in the course of the next races,” explains the still Honda works driver.
It has been an open secret in the pit lane for several weeks that the 31-year-old is returning to KTM. “Maybe yes,” Espargaro replied when asked if he would ride a bike he knew.
There is no longer a place in the KTM factory team. Their drivers have already been confirmed for next season with Brad Binder and Jack Miller. Accordingly, Espargaro should be accommodated by the Tech3 satellite team. The Iberian had already worked for KTM from 2017 to 2020.
