Pramac Yamaha Moto2
After their split away from Ducati at the end of what was a MotoGP title-winning 2024 season, Pramac have not only teamed with Yamaha for 2025 with Jack Miller and Miguel Oliveira on YZR-M1 machinery, but Yamaha also join as naming rights partners for Pramac’s 2025 Moto2 campaign with Tony Arbolino and Izan Guevara.
The new Moto2 team will tie in with Yamaha’s award-winning BLU CRU programme.
Italian rider Tony Arbolino and Spaniard Izan Guevara will make an exciting pairing that will debut on track at the first official Moto2 winter test, held from 7-8 February 2025, at the Ricardo Tormo Circuit in Valencia, Spain.
