riders are moving forward with plans to form a union, similar to the Grand Prix Drivers’ Association in Formula 1.

The British-based Frenchman, who also served as Suzuki’s test rider until the factory’s MotoGP exit last season, remains a regular in the paddock though his work with TNT Sports. “I think it is better to keep a bit private for now, to make it happen first. Because for the moment we just talked with Sylvain, but we didn’t talk about anything else, so it is better to wait.”Pramac Ducati’s Johann Zarco believes the union could be used to help riders contribute more to the evolution of technical rules, for example, to help improve overtaking.
