Pramac Racing confirmed on Thursday that Guevara will make the step up to motorcycle racing's premier class, marking a significant career advancement for the Spanish talent who has been competing in the intermediate Moto2 category.

Guevara's promotion reflects Pramac's confidence in the Spanish rider's potential to compete against the elite field in MotoGP. The move represents one of the key driver changes confirmed for the 2024 season, as teams continue to finalize their roster for the year ahead.
The appointment comes as the MotoGP paddock undergoes several personnel transitions, with various teams announcing adjustments to their lineups ahead of the next campaign.
