Yamaha’s all-new V4 MotoGP projec🍬t is set to return to the track next month, as the Japanese manufacturer continues its private testing programme ahead of a possible 2026 debut.

Test rider 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Augusto Fernandez, who recently completed laps with the prototype after the Qatar Grand Prix at Valencia, confirmed that anoth༺er outing is ꦬscheduled soon.

“Next month, I think,” Fernandez, curre꧟ntly replacing the injured Miguel Oliveira at Pramac, told MotoGP.com at Jerez. “It was a positive test - interesting to develop the new project.

“It’s very early to even compare the bikesꩲ, but the project loꦬoks nice. Yamaha is doing a great job.”

The V4 engine marks a major technical shift for Yamaha, which has relied on its traditional Inlineꦯ4 configuration throughout its four-stroke MotoGP history, including title glory as recently as 2021 with Fabio Quartararo.

Ho♛wever, the M1 has struggled to match the performance of its V4 rivals from Ducati, KTM, Aprilia, and Honda🔯 in recent seasons.

Quartararo revealed Valencꦏia had been “the second test wit💧h the [V4] bike.”

Team-mate Alex Rins added with a smile: “If I say to you that I didn’t speak wꦺith Augusto about 🌜it, I would be lying!”

Yamaha insists the V4 will only replace the current machine when it proves to be faster, but Quartararo 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:already feels it will be the direct𓂃ion to go i🎃n for the final seas💙on of the 1000cc regulations in 2026.

The full-time Yamaha race riders are not expected to test the V4 until "around August or Septembe💦r" while Fernandez could give it a public debut as a wild-card later in the season.
