Jack Miller Battles Bike Vibrations and Uncertain Future as KTM Looks Ahead
KTM explains key factor behind Jack Miller's decline in performance
"He's determined," says KTM about Jack Miller
According to KTM, Jack Miller's substandard performances can be attributed primarily to issues with vibrations.
Miller's quest to regain his form has grown increasingly crucial, as he is actively seeking a new team for the year 2025.
KTM substituted Pedro Acosta for him in their main team and subsequently disregarded him for their Tech3 roster.
For now, he needs to keep struggling to gain control over his motorcycle.
Team manager Francesco Guidotti informed Motorsport-Total that the new package's vibrations affect him more than anyone else.
Guidotti commented on the bike's vibrations, stating, "It's inherent to the overall design."
"Since the start of the year, we've been dealing with issues related to vibrations, which are caused by the new package."
"Currently, Jack, much like Augusto Fernandez, is greatly affected by these vibrations."
"He is unable to fully harness the capabilities of the motorcycle as he desires."
Guidotti stressed that Miller is determined and won't back down.
“We are now focusing on the races left in this season and will continue to give our best effort until it concludes. Ultimately, our goal is to win.”
Last season, Miller ended up trailing his teammate Brad Binder after making the switch from Ducati to KTM.
The year began disastrously for him when he crashed his bike at Turn 1 during the opening grand prix in Qatar, ultimately ending the race in last place.
A fifth-place finish in Portimao sparked optimism, but it remains his only top-10 result in a Sunday race this year after nine rounds.
Miller holds the 16th position in the MotoGP rankings, just ahead of Fernandez from Tech3, who, like Miller, currently does not have a confirmed spot for the 2025 season.
However, Miller is highly regarded for his contribution to transforming the KTM into the highly sought-after motorcycle it has become.
As he searches for a new place to live, Miller also needs to address the problematic vibrations of his machine to regain his previous performance levels from past seasons.
