Marc Marquez has told Torak Razgatlioglu to ‘prioritise’ after Yamaha’s poor winter.

But while Marquez is favorite to win Buriram.Razgatlioglu will struggle to earn points based on pre-season testing.

Has Toprak Razgatlioglu joined the WRONG MotoGP team?

Yamaha They remain the slowest manufacturer on the grid, just like last year, but the switch from an inline four to a relatively primitive V4 engine has set them apart.

Marc Marquez evaluates the future of Fabio Quartararo and Toprak Razgatlioglu

During Thursday’s pre-race press conference, Marquez Razgatlioglu and 2021 world champion Fabio Quatararo have been asked to comment on their struggles at Yamaha.

It’s an open secret in MotoGP. Quatararo is moving to Honda. Due to lack of confidence in the Yama Project for 2027.

That rarely fills up. RazgatliogluSigned a two-year production contract, with confidence. But Marquez told the Pramac rider not to rush to any judgement.

“Look, there are a lot of times in sports, especially in motorsports, where it’s not all about the driver or the machine,” Marquez said. As. “It’s a combination, and you have to follow your instincts and find the best project for the moment you’re in.

“In the end, you think, ‘Yeah, you have to wait, you have to work on this project and this bike.’

But in the case of Quattro it is different because he has to decide which future option he wants, if not already. And since Toprac’s situation has not yet been in the championship, he will have to wait a bit to see what happens.

Razgatlioglu is ‘trying not to look at the timetables’ For now, instead focus on his adaptation.

While ‘everyone’ was telling him he needed time, he was naturally impatient. The 29-year-old is used to dominating the WSBK.

Yamaha admits it may not be truly competitive until next year and seems willing to bide its time. Switching to Pirelli tires – he used Italian tires in the Superbikes – should play into his hands.

But Neil Hodgson is concerned. Razgatlioglu starts to ‘hate’ MotoGP Before the end of the year. It looks like he will have to compete in 44 races (including sprints) this year on a bike that doesn’t show his talent.
