Jack Miller is in a complicated period in a MotoGP career that has never been closer to ending. Kicked from his official KTM saddle by the rise in rank of Pedro Acosta, he thought at least he would have a consolation prize with partner Tech3 before seeing the two available places taken by Enea Bastianini and Maverick Viñales. Suddenly with his mouth in the water, the Australian expressed his bitterness to his now future ex-employer, forced to take up his pilgrim's staff to find a new refuge in an environment of heightened competition. And it is in this precarious situation that “JackAss” slipped a remark which will not fail to be noted at Yamaha…
At 29 years, Jack Miller could well be experiencing his last season in MotoGP. Back against the wall, however, he is not ready to give up. He is confident he still has a lot to offer in the category. He is neither considering a transition to WorldSBK nor an early retirement to become a test rider. At the Dutch Grand Prix at Assen, he claimed he had offers on the table to continue in MotoGP in 2025.
Indeed, there remain opportunities for Miller in satellite teams that have not yet finalized their rosters for 2025. Gresini Racing team, waiting to renew the contractAlex Marquez, a position could become available, even if this would imply a return to a Ducati, motorcycle on which Miller has already encountered difficulties.
Jack Miller's options remain limited, sparking bitterness
TrackHouse Racing et Pramac, who would go to Yamaha , are also possible options. This change could open the door to Miller, especially if Franco Morbidelli join the team VR46, leaving two vacant places on the satellite Yamaha YZR-M1s.
Miller is convinced he deserves a place in MotoGP, citing his consistent performances. “ There are people slower than me on the grid and they still have a job. A driver finished behind me in the last Grand Prix and signed for $12 million, so I'm sure I'll get a job,” he said on Todocircuito, referring to the rumor regarding the salary of fabio quartararo, thus highlighting the disparity between pilots' performances and contracts. That being said, the shortcut is daring and the comparison is not right.
