MotoGP considers budget cap as Verstappen warns of narrowing driver gaps

MotoGP is considering the implementation of a budget cap for its manufacturers, a move intended to mirror the financial regulations used in Formula 1. The proposal raises questions regarding its feasibility and effectiveness within the racing series.

In Formula 1, Max Verstappen expressed concern following a qualifying session where he narrowly finished behind reserve driver Liam Lawson. Verstappen noted that the performance gap between the primary drivers and substitutes is becoming increasingly minimal.
