A Vietnamese outlet reports that MotoGP's Fabio Quartararo secured a move to Honda (HRC) before the 2026 season even began, without entering contract renewal talks with Yamaha. The report says HRC's clear answers on its 850cc engine development, aerodynamics, and long-term plans sealed the decision, timed around the new 850cc engine era starting in 2027.

From what I've seen trackside, Quartararo not even entering talks with Yamaha is a serious call. Walking away from the team you won a championship with in 2021 isn't easy. Heading into the 850cc era, it sounds like he wanted a machine from HRC he could actually fight with, corner entry to exit.
