MotoGP is seriously evaluating a regulation change that would give each rider access to only one bike per race weekend from 2027, with the proposal originating from the manufacturers as a primary cost cutting measure. The initiative is part of ongoing negotiations between the championship promoter and manufacturers covering the 2027 to 2031 period, and would need approval from the Grand Prix Commission before coming into force. Flag-to-flag wet race procedures would be among the biggest casualties of the change.
