Rins to replace Morbidelli at Yamaha next season

LONDON: Spaniard Alex Rins will replace Italian rider Franco Morbidelli at Yamaha next season, the Japanese manufacturer’s factory MotoGP team said today.

Rins, a six-time MotoGP race winner, including in Texas this season, is currently recovering from surgery after breaking his right leg in a sprint race in Italy in June and has missed the last three Grands Prix.“Alex has been away from the MotoGP paddock for a while due to the injury he sustained at Mugello, but we are confident that he should be fully recovered and up to speed for the 2024 season,” said team boss Lin Jarvis.

Morbidelli, 28, was championship runner-up to Spaniard Joan Mir in 2020 when he won three Grands Prix but he has not won a race since then.“It’s a shame that the last two years didn’t play out the way we both wanted and hoped for,” said Jarvis. “We discussed the possibilities to continue our partnership, but ultimately we decided that 2024 would be a moment to make a change, both for Yamaha and for Franky.”
