"The pre-season tests have already given us very positive signals regarding this new adventure with Yamaha. They have been very interesting tests that have started to give us a better understanding of what the riders need—not only for them to adapt as quickly as possible to the M1 but also to allow Yamaha to accommodate their characteristics to some extent. There is certainly still a lot of work to be done, but the first steps have been extremely positive. During the last two days of testing in Buriram, things went quite well for both Jack Miller and Miguel Oliveira. What I now expect is to improve the lap times set three weeks ago but, above all, to work in a way that ensures constant progress for the bike. If these past months have been a period of absolute novelty for us at Pramac Racing, they have been the same for Yamaha, with a new collaboration that already seems to be bearing its first fruits. The commitment from both sides is immense. As I have already said, even though we are two teams that from this weekend will fiercely battle on the track, in the garage, we work as if we were one single team, with a continuous exchange of information that can only help the project grow faster. For Prima Pramac Yamaha MotoGP, another new element is our rider pairing. I have been very impressed with how Jack and Miguel have approached the new bike, which is already quite different – and better – from the one they first tested in Barcelona. They are two riders with different styles, as well as different approaches and attitudes. But I really like both of them for their mindset and commitment. I’m very happy to have them on the team because, from what I have observed, both will be able to contribute significantly to the project."
