Pramac Yamaha boss Gino Borsoi defended the V4 project at the Jerez test, saying he could not understand the negative perception around Yamaha and that being a second to a second and a half off rivals who have developed their V4 to maximum expression seems like a great job to him. Borsoi also pointed to the V4 as the direct base for the 2027 850cc project, arguing it must be made to work now.
