Bongers ‘speechless’ after Razgatlioglu WorldSBK treble at Misano

A potential 2027 MotoGP entry for BMW has gained momentum after the German marque has acquired Suzuki’s data.

BMW Motorrad’s new boss Markus Flasch revealed earlier in 2024 that there could be a possibility of BMW entering MotoGP in the future, “It’s clear that it has to make sense for us,” he said.

“And that’s why we’re taking a close look at it. I wouldn’t rule it out.”

Suzuki paved its way to become one of the best teams on the grid, winning the Riders’ championship in 2020 with Joan Mir.

The Japanese marque unexpectedly left the sport at the end of 2022, leaving the data from its most successful seasons in recent memory unused.

According to MotorSport Magazine, BMW has reportedly paid €18m for the data as it escalates the possibility of joining MotoGP in 2027, which would see the German automotive brand returning to the two-wheeled pinnacle for the first time since the 1950s.

2027 marks the biggest regulation shakeup in the MotoGP era thus far, which will see teams switch to smaller capacity engines and the introduction of fully sustainable fuel. 

The German manufacturer is riding high in the World Superbike Championship after years in the doldrums thanks to the exploits of Turkish rider Toprak Razgatlioglu, who leads the Riders’ standings after a dominant stretch of wins.

While previous rumours linked Razgatlıoğlu to MotoGP from 2025, any potential move would likely be with BMW when the new regulation period starts, which even then looks dubious.

BMW will need to make its full decision in the coming months or could face the threat of falling behind.

The Bavarian outfit needs to recruit key personnel and formulate a competitive bike if it’s serious about a 2027 entry, but acquiring Suzuki’s date is a significant step in the right direction.
