MotoGP Germany: Miller ‘super thankful, amazing opportunity’

Jack Miller arrived at the Sachsenring with his MotoGP future secure for two more seasons but as of 2023, no longer in Ducati colours.

A return to KTM awaits the Australian - having begun his Grand Prix career in Aki Ajo’s Moto3 outfit - after five years in red and with two manufacturers already under his belt in the premier class. The deal also sees Miller re-establish his relationship with a previous boss, now Red Bull KTM Factory Racing’s Team Manager, Francesco Guidotti.

“First and foremost, very happy to have that one done and to be here for another two years!” Miller confirmed from Germany before joking, “You guys have to put up with me for a little bit longer. But no, really, really happy! Excited for what is to come.

“An amazing opportunity for me too to have a bit of change of scenery and try something different,” he continued on the role awaiting him. “I’ve been at Ducati now for quite some time, five years, and had an amazing experience. We’ve done a lot of good races together, a lot of highs, and a lot of lows, but super thankful for everything that they’ve taught me throughout the time.

“To have the opportunity to not only ride at Pramac and go through that whole program there, but then also to step up into the factory team and be able to have two years here. It’s been an amazing experience and something I wouldn’t change at all.

“Going forward, looking forward to another decent project, with a lot of hungry people so it looks good.

“I mean, you don’t have to be a mind reader to work out that I have a good relationship over there as well with Aki being my manager and Francesco and everything like that, but I have a great relationship with a lot of brands. I feel like you can ask anybody that I’ve worked with
