Dani Pedrosa, 37, doesn't think about the end of his career: 'As long as I'm fast and KTM wants me...'

Dani Pedrosa is easily one of the riders who most marked the modern era of MotoGP, he who at the age of 37 hasn't yet ended his career and is a test rider for the official factory structure of KTM in the premier class.

At the age of 37, the spaniard assumes that he still does not have a scheduled date for his retirement as a professional rider and says that as long as he and KTM are satisfied with the collaboration, he intends to continue to carry out his duties, he revealed to SPEEDWEEK.com:

- I don't know, I'm still having fun riding. For me, riding is the most beautiful thing in the world. As long as I'm fast and I can give the proper feedback to the KTM engineers, I'll keep going. This is always on condition that the people at KTM want me and are convinced that I can still be useful. I would like to continue riding for longer, but the priority has to be to continue my performance, stay in shape and keep everything in tune.

Dani will have a wild card at the Spanish GP. Pedrosa’s only previous wild-card was at the 2021 Styrian GP, where he qualified 14th and finished an impressive tenth, having escaped injury in a fiery accident that prompted a restart.
