Remy Gardner is having his second MotoGP weekend with Yamaha at Silverstone after Sachsenring. If in Germany he had replaced the injured Alex Rins, in the UK he replaces test rider Cal Crutchlow riding the M1.
The fact remains that next weekend the Australian will be back in action with the Yamaha R1 at the Portimao round, which is the last one before the break. As we all know, Remy's name is at the center of market negotiations, but apparently his future seems already mapped out.
According to what we have learned, Yamaha has asserted its option for next year, and as a result Gardner will ride in Superbike again in 2025, on the strength of a direct contract with Yamaha Motor Europe. He will do so with the R1 of the GRT team, i.e., the structure headed by Filippo Conti with whom Remy is now linked since the 2023 season.
While the Australian represents the present and the future, the situation of his teammate, namely Dominique Aegerter, whose contract expires at the end of the year, remains to be defined. At the moment a big question hovers over the future of the Swiss, who is busy this weekend at the CIV in Misano.
