Yamaha and Pramac Racing will part ways with Jack Miller at the end of the 2026 MotoGP season, the Japanese brand and the Italian team have announced.
After his first stint with the team from 2018 to 2020, the Australian returned in 2025, this time riding a Yamaha instead of a Ducati.
"I'd like to thank Yamaha, Prima Pramac Yamaha MotoGP, and everyone involved in the project for the opportunity we've shared since the start of the 2025 season. It has been a rewarding experience to be part of a group working hard to build for the future. We've all given everything to move the project forward, and I'm proud to have played my part in that journey," Miller said.
Miller's current teammate, Toprak Razgatlioglu, has a seat secured with the team for next year. Pramac's Moto2 rider Izan Guevara has been heavily tipped for a promotion to MotoGP next year. The young Spaniard is currently second in the Moto2 standings.

Team principal Paolo Campinoti added: "Some riders pass through a team, while others leave a lasting mark on its history, and Jack certainly belongs to the second group. Over the time he has spent with us, he has become an important part of the Prima Pramac story, both through what he has achieved on track and through the person he has been within our team.
"We are naturally sorry that our journey together is coming to an end, but this is part of the decisions that have to be made in our sport. We wish Jack and his family every success for whatever comes next. The door will always be open for him, because once you're part of the Prima Pramac family, you'll always be part of it."

What's next for Miller?

"I still believe I have more to offer and more to achieve, and I'll take that motivation with me into whatever comes next. I'm looking forward to the next chapter of my career and seeing where that journey will lead. But before then, there are still races left this season, and my full focus remains on finishing the year strongly with the team."
Miller has been linked with leaving MotoGP completely, and joining the WorldSBK series.
