Remy Gardner isn’t going anywhere – the 2021 Moto2 World Champion has inked a fresh two-year deal to remain with Yamaha Motor Europe through the 2026 and 2027 World Superbike seasons.
After switching from MotoGP to WorldSBK in 2023, Gardner spent his debut year finding his feet. But by 2024, he was regularly inside the top six. Fast forward to 2025 and the Aussie is showing serious pace on the Yamaha R1, highlighted by a second-career WorldSBK podium at Assen.
This new deal means Gardner will line up for a fourth consecutive season with the GYTR GRT Yamaha WorldSBK Team.

“I am happy to be continuing with Yamaha in WorldSBK, our journey together so far has been good but I still feel that we are only scratching the surface of what we can achieve. We’ve shown that when everything comes together, we can be quick and fight for the podium, my target is to do this more consistently over the remainder of the 2025 season and look towards taking a further step in 2026.”

“Remy has become a valuable member of our line-up over the last few years, not just through his speed and potential, but also his ability to give detailed feedback which proves useful to our engineers as we look to continue developing the R1 in WorldSBK. We have already seen he has the ability to fight for the podium, and the target is to be more consistent in this goal towards the end of this season and then build on this for next year.”
