After several months of uncertainty, Augusto Fernández is now confirmed in MotoGP with GasGas Tech3 for 2024. This way, he can continue his debut season, which has shown clear progress.
The Spaniard emphasized his satisfaction with this continuity, which he needed: ‘For sure is a relief to get the confirmation. But I’m also very, very happy to stay one more year with the same team, same people around and the same bike, because I really feel that we are building something great and I’m always closer to be competitive on this class. And to have other year knowing everything is what I needed, so I’m very happy for that’.
Asked if to be a test rider or going back to Moto2 were possibilities, Fernández denied: ‘No, honestly I didn’t have any other offer. Since I signed I was confirmed for 2024, so we never discussed any other thing with them. But everybody needed that confirmation, so I’m happy with the news and I’m happy to have another year’.
