JAKARTA - Fabio Quartararo's manager, Eric Mahe, has confirmed that he is communicating with a factory team other than Yamaha. This indicates that the Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP rider will change teams next season.

However, Mahe said there was nothing new. It is still checking all the parameters before it can decide on the next step.

"We just need to know where Fabio can achieve the best results is where we are, at this stage," said Mahe, in the official MotoGP website.

Then we were a bit lucky because a few years ago a decision like this was taken 18 months earlier, so at this stage there is no rush. So it's a good situation."

Mahe realized that Yamaha was not in a hurry either. So, Quartararo's side was still investigating the situation and then seeing what would happen.

"This is not a bidding issue, we are in talks. We are trying to understand what is best for Fabio," Mahe said.

Mahe declined to reveal which manufacturer they were in contact with. However, Sky Sports MotoGP reports, Honda Racing Corporation is one of them.
