JAKARTA – Team Boss Suzuki Ecstar Livio Suppo has now set the focus for his team squad for the 2023 season. He is also ready to renew the contracts of Alex Rins and Joan Mir to stay in the team for the next campaign.
Both riders have been part of the Hamamatsu factory team for four seasons to date. However, both contracts will expire this year.
For that, it is not surprising that Suzuki began to outline his plans for the 2023 season later. So far there have been no negotiations with their two rider representatives, but the Suzuki team seems satisfied with the performance of their riders.
"Our intention is to renew the contract with both of them, and we will immediately start talking to their management," Livio said
The future of Joan Mir and Alex Rins so far is not clear at all. Even the latest information says that Mir is linked with Repsol Honda at the beginning of the year.
Mir did not deny the rumors at all when asked at the Sepang pre-season test. The 24-year-old has previously emphasized that the level of performance of the Suzuki GSX-RR will be a key factor when deciding where he will race in 2023.
Meanwhile, Rins is reportedly not looking for a new destination in the 2023 season. That commitment is in line with his appearance with Suzuki, which is increasingly promising this season.
"This season is one where there are many riders whose contracts expire this year. Including our riders. We know there are some riders who have signed, but the market is still quite open," said Livio.
"Even before the start of the season we were happy with our riders, and now we can see the results of the first few races. We are still very happy with them," he continued.
Suzuki this season is in the race for the world title after Rins won two podiums from the four series that have been held. Rins recorded a third podium finish in MotoGP Argentina and finished second in Austin, United States.
The Spaniard is now in second place in the MotoGP standings with a collection of 56 points. He is only five points adrift of Ducati's Enea Bastianini who occupies the top spot.
