Jorge Lorenzo's Fiat Yamaha team boss Daniele Romagnoli has said the amount of sophisticated electronics used in MotoGP must be reduced to cut costs and to make racing better.

Romagnoli also said that he would like to see testing reduced, engines limited to 16,000rpm in order to increase their longevity and carbon brakes banned altogether.

"I’d eliminate the Jerez test in November. Or in March, I’d switch the Jerez test with Doha, and have Doha as the last test before the first GP race, thus having the Doha test and Doha GP one after the other," said the Italian.

"Logistically, this would lead to a reduction of costs, as the equipment would be already in the same place. The technical aspects require some intervention as well.

"The most expensive part of the bike is the engine, both in terms of cost of components and of the research involved. I’d suggest to drastically reduce the maximum engine revolution, for example to 16,000 revolutions.

"This would increase the engine life and would also allow the same engine to be re-used in different GPs, in two or three races. In decreasing engine revolution we could also use cheaper materials as well it being cheaper to manufacture.

"With regards to electronics, I’d use only one ECU and drastically reduce the use of expensive and complex sensors on the bike, such as inertial platforms and GPS. We could then use simpler electronic devices, as in the first years of MotoGP, thus eliminating some of the bike aid and control systems.

"I would also recommend to bring back the use of steel brakes, that would help to save money. I don’t think these changes would make the championship any less spectacular. As a matter of fact, it could lead to even have more surprises."
