Miller “not stressed” weighing up future as Razgatlioglu joins Pramac Yamaha

With Toprak Razgatlioglu joining Pramac Yamaha team for 2026, Jack Miller is weighing up his future options in case he has to make way for the Turkish rider in MotoGP.

The 30-year-old Australian is relatively upbeat about the situation but wants to stay in MotoGP rather than move over to the Superbike World Championship.

Last week Razgatlioglu was announced as joining the Pramac Yamaha squad from next season, meaning one of Miguel Oliveira or Miller will lose their spot on the MotoGP grid from next season, with no decision made yet.

“Not taking anything away from those guys, I could go to Superbikes and make better money, but I’m not here for that,” explained Miller. “I’m here to try and race the best in the world.

“Like I said, that’s not taking anything away [from the Superbike riders], I’m talking best in general. The most expensive, extreme, powerful motorcycles that you can ride. The best brakes, the best everything, so that’s why I enjoy it.

“I’m not saying that I don’t like Superbikes. I love it and I was watching, as you heard my name on the broadcast every two seconds, in Misano, but will explore options here first because I don’t feel my time as a MotoGP rider is done. I still feel like I’m getting better with age.

“I’ve had [offers from Superbike teams]. I was also out of a job last year. This is not a new situation for me; it’s just Groundhog Day 12 months on! So I’m not stressed.”

When asked about the development of Yamaha’s new V4 engine, Miller confirmed he had access to the factory team’s big project.

“It was next door, I went and sat on it. I took a heap of photos for blackmail!” joked Miller. “It sounds really cool and it’s nice to see it on track. It’s very primitive I want to say, it’s the early stage of it.

“It reminds me of when Suzuki first came out with their bike. When you see a bike being built for the first time to go on track, they’re just trying to run up kilometres and they’re not really focused on the minor details.”
