Pramac Yamaha has revealed its 2026 MotoGP livery, as Toprak Razgatlioglu has made his first official appearance for the team during the launch event in Siena.

Razgatlioglu joins Pramac after securing his third WorldSBK title last year with BMW, partnering Jack Miller who enters his second year in the Pramac Yamaha project. The launch has revealed that both riders are in Alpinestars leathers for 2026, both switching from Dainese.

Of course, this year will be one of change inside Yamaha as well, given the change of engine from its long-used inline-four to a new V4 configuration that moves it in-line with the rest of the grid.

Pramac’s launch has shown something that hasn’t changed much at Yamaha for this year, that being the paint scheme used by the Italian team, which keeps the purple and black colours it has used in some form since 2024.

One thing the team will be hoping does change in 2026 is its position in the MotoGP teams’ standings at the end of the year, since 2025 ended with Pramac bottom of the pile and 30 points behind 10th place LCR Honda.

This came after winning titles in back-to-back years in 2023, when it won the MotoGP teams’ title, and 2024 when it took the riders’ crown with Jorge Martin.

Both of those were achieved with Ducati machinery, of course, and the switch to Yamaha has come at a time where the Iwata factory is trying to build back to a position of strength in MotoGP.

Moto2

The Pramac team continues to operate in Moto2 this year for a second season running Yamaha’s official team in the intermediate class.

Izan Guevara stays with the team for this season after taking his first Moto2 win last year at the final round in Valencia. Guevara also tested the Yamaha M1 in Valencia on the Wednesday after that win, Yamaha staying on at the Circuit Ricardo Tormo for a second day of testing after the official test on the Tuesday.

Guevara has a new teammate for this year, Alberto Ferrandez stepping up to the World Championship after winning three races and finishing fourth in the standings in the European Moto2 Championship last year.
