MotoGP 2027 grid: All confirmed rider signings
The dawn of a new era in MotoGP next year, with the introduction of the championship's new technical regulations for manufacturers committing to remain in the series through the end of 2031, will trigger the biggest shake-up to the premier-class grid in many years. Many of the changes had been emerging gradually since the start of the season, but following the signing of the Concorde Agreement…
MotoGP's 2027 grid has been officially confirmed, marking a significant change for the premier-class grid. The grid is virtually set, with only two riders' positions remaining uncertain. David Alonso and Diogo Moreira, Honda's young talents, are in contention for a seat at the factory team. Marc Marquez has extended his two-year contract with Ducati, while Francesco Bagnaia has left the team to join Aprilia, securing an all-Italian line-up.
Yamaha's factory line-up consists of Jorge Martin and Ai Ogura, who replaced Quartararo and Alex Rins. KTM has confirmed Alex Marquez's arrival and Fabio Di Giannantonio's signing. Honda has announced David Alonso's multi-year contract, with the team choosing between him and Moreira for the factory seat. Pramac-Yamaha will feature Toprak Razgatlioglu and Izan Guevara.
Independent team Gresini has also announced its 2027 grid, with Joan Mir and Dani Holgado forming its pair. LCR Honda expects Alonso to replace Moreira if the latter joins the factory team. Johann Zarco returns to action in Aragon after his injury absence. Pramac Yamaha has finalized its lineup with Toprak Razgatlioglu and Izan Guevara.
Trackhouse has renewed Raul Fernandez and Enea Bastianini, while VR46 has added Fermín Aldeguer and Nicolo Bulega. With numerous riders potentially moving from Moto2, established premier-class riders like Alex Rins, Franco Morbidelli, Jack Miller, Brad Binder, and Maverick Vinales will be forced off the grid.
