Manu Gonzalez, running away with the Moto2 championship lead, revealed his current stance on a potential promotion to MotoGP in 2027, saying "nothing has been decided yet."
Dominating and still having no seat — that's one of racing's cruelest realities. I've seen it out in the field myself: perfect from corner entry to exit doesn't guarantee a contract, that's a separate negotiation entirely. Gonzalez's riding is the real deal. What's left is politics and timing lining up.

Saying 'there's nothing yet' shows a humble attitude — if anything, it makes you more hopeful about how he'll perform after moving up.
First time I've heard of Gonzalez — didn't realize he was putting up such dominant results in Moto2.
With a record of running away at the top of Moto2, it wouldn't be surprising if multiple teams were already reaching out.
Watching the situation around Acosta and Viñales really shows how complicated the musical-chairs game for MotoGP seats can get.
Factoring in the young-rider situation at KTM and Aprilia too, the 2027 power map looks like it'll be pretty fluid.
Even while dominating, it comes down to seat availability and what the manufacturers want, so it's not decided by talent alone.
Having the talent is one thing, but contract negotiations are a separate matter — there's a good chance something's already happening behind the scenes.
Gonzalez dominating Moto2 — going purely by results, a promotion should be a lock, so saying 'there's nothing yet' feels overly cautious.
