Hakim Danish will take Ryusei Yamanaka’s place for the final two Moto3 races of the season, gaining valuable experience as he closes out his JuniorGP campaign after securing ninth in the standings and bronze in the Red Bull Rookies Cup. He will then step up full time with MSi Racing in 2026, joining Yamanaka as a teammate on his path toward MotoGP.

Reacting to his 2026 announcement, Danish said he is “really, really happy” and that the news has given him extra motivation:

*“My dream has come true, and I can’t wait for next year, when I’ll give 100% of myself. I’d like to thank MSi, Jordi and Óscar, my sponsors SIC Racing, ZK Racing, KBS, Terengganu Inc, and all my fans who believe in my career.”*
