Yamaha Re-focuses on Goals with Impact of Weather in Most
The weekend at Most was both promising and challenging for Yamaha Motor Corporation. The team, which fell short of expectations in the championship race, decided to focus on internal competition and motorcycle development while adapting to the unique conditions of the Most circuit and fluctuating weather.
Yamaha’s Situation in Most
Factory rider Andrea Locatelli was unable to improve his position in the championship race with the results he achieved in 2026. Falling 195 points behind Nicolo Bulega, Locatelli, considering that Xavi Vierge was also further behind in the standings, decided to prioritize motorcycle development and internal competition.
Locatelli emphasized that he had established a better connection with the Yamaha R1 since Assen and highlighted the positive atmosphere he felt with the motorcycle. Despite the highside crash that occurred during the weekend at Balaton Park, which caused the motorcycle to overturn at high speed, the rider assessed the positive aspects.
“What I felt was positive,” Locatelli said. “I got some scratches in the crash but I’m recovering and feeling ready.”
Characteristics of the Most Circuit and Weather
The Most circuit stands out as a track where Yamaha has previously achieved successful results. Locatelli had previously achieved 5th, 3rd, and 4th place results at Most last season. However, changeable weather conditions are expected during the weekend; the possibility of sun, wind, and rain together will pose a significant challenge for the riders.
Locatelli said, “We are working hard to get back to the front group. We need to close the gap with the leaders. We will see how the weather is because it looks quite unpredictable.”
New Goals Within the Team
Xavi Vierge believes he will rediscover his motorcycle feeling from the start of the season. The Spanish rider emphasized the special focus on the Most atmosphere and stated that he was ready to achieve good results.
The Most weekend for Yamaha could be an important reference point for the rest of the season. Locatelli’s increasing form in recent times and Vierge’s search for a comeback could play a decisive role in the brand’s competition in the middle group.
