The 2027 MotoGP rider grid is already largely finalized behind the scenes, with 16 of the 22 available bikes securely assigned to riders.
Official announcements from the teams are currently delayed because manufacturers and promoters are still finalizing a new commercial agreement regarding financial revenue splits.
Four out of the five main factory teams have already locked in their future lineups, including Ducati securing Marc Marquez and rising star Pedro Acosta.
Major shakeups are also settled, with Yamaha quickly signing Jorge Martin to replace the departing Fabio Quartararo, alongside Moto2 standout Ai Ogura.
With most top-tier seats completely full, only six spots remain open on the entire grid, leaving Trackhouse and Tech3 as the only teams yet to finalize their garages.
