Pramac Racing has announced the acquisition of Jack Miller to complete its 2025 rider line-up, with the four-time MotoGP race winner signing a one-year deal.
Miller will accompany Miguel Oliveira in a complete shakeup to Pramac’s 2025 rider line-up following the departures of the incumbent riders Jorge Martin and Franco Morbidelli.
Earlier in the 2024 season Miller was informed by KTM not to talk to other manufacturers as it had planned to keep him in the KTM stable.
KTM performed a U-turn and decided as part of a rider shuffle that included rookie sensation Pedro Acosta earning a promotion to the factory team, leaving Miller with an option of securing a deal with the Tech3 satellite team.
KTM acted swiftly in signing Maverick Vinales from Aprilia and Enea Bastianini from the factory Ducati for Tech.
Pramac will become Yamaha’s satellite team in 2025 after signing a long-term deal with the Japanese manufacturer, after ending a two-decade-long affiliation with Ducati.
Miller has ridden on a Honda, Ducati and KTM in his 10-year tenure in MotoGP which Pramac believe will stand the team in good stead heading into its new era.
The acquisition of Miller completes the rider line-up for the 2025 MotoGP season.
“We are happy to announce that Jack is joining Prima Pramac Racing’s line-up, and we warmly welcome him to the Yamaha MotoGP group,” said Yamaha boss Lin Jarvis.
“With 10 years of experience in the MotoGP class with three different manufacturers, Jack will be a valuable asset for Yamaha. His speed, knowledge, work ethic, and team spirit will be invaluable to our project as we plan to improve the performance of the M1 in 2025 and beyond.
“Yamaha will be supporting him in every way they can.”
