Jack Miller is still waiting for that breakthrough MotoGP result in 2025 after being one of the unluckiest riders in the sport this season.

The Aussie started 14th and finished 14th at the Dutch Grand Prix and never really looked like threatening the top 10.

Pramac are bottom of the teams’ standings by some way, but have encountered teething issues and bad luck on both sides of the garage during the first year of their Yamaha partnership.

It’s added pressure for Miller, who is currently fighting for his MotoGP career, and has shown at times that he can match Fabio Quartararo on the factory bike. The pace is there, but bringing it together has been tricky.

After lacking some raw speed, Miller ‘learned’ a lot at the Dutch Grand Prix and will be hoping to put his learnings to use in the final two rounds before the summer break.

Miller has told Yamaha not to forget one thing and believes that his contributions to the development of their bike should be remembered, as Pramac decides who to partner with Toprak Razgatlioglu for 2026.

Jack Miller laments Pramac power ‘issue’ that must be improved

Yamaha would pick Miller over Miguel Oliveira if they had to sign someone right now, but that could change over the coming races.

The double-header before the summer break is a crucial opportunity for both to prove that they deserve to be on the grid for longer.

Miller has faced an unrideable Pramac bike and stuck at the task through the tough times. His experience could still be really handy in the future.

It even shone through after the race in Assen, as he pointed out where his bike needs to improve if he wants to be competing for better positions.

“Sachsenring, for turning it can be good,” he said, according to FOX Sports. “Power is not our issue, it’s usable power that’s the issue.

“We know we need to keep the bike in the grip window which is tough, but Sachsenring has plenty of long corners, and this bike turns quite well.”

Why it makes sense for Yamaha to promote Jack Miller rather than drop him for 2026

Despite being on close to matching his worst-ever MotoGP season, which came during his rookie year in 2015, there’s cause for optimism with Miller.

Sitting 18th in the riders’ championship, he is just two points behind factory Yamaha rider Alex Rins, who has been on their bike for a season and a half now.

It should be a lot easier for him to extract a result from that bike, but it’s largely unknown whether he is riding at 100% fitness still.

Miller should replace Rins at Yamaha after qualifying five positions ahead of him at the last race, and only scoring two points less than the Spaniard in his first season on a satellite bike.

However, it’s an unlikely scenario. It’s a shame for the current Pramac riders, but it’s looking like at least one of them won’t be on the grid next year.
