A defiant Jack Miller has declared his MotoGP career is not done yet as speculation continues over a possible new deal for 2025.

The Queenslander is no longer required in the KTM garage after this season and has been linked to the Gresini Ducati and Pramac Yamaha teams.

Miller told News Corp: “I’ve got a lot more to give now, more so than ever.

“I worked my a**e off to be here. So to roll over when I still feel like I’ve got stuff left out on the table, it’d be heartbreaking.’’

Speaking ahead of German GP at the Sachsenring, Miller said he was out to make his mark in the remaining 12 rounds after a difficult start to the year which has him 15th in the championship.

Miller had been widely expected to rejoin Ducati with the Gresini team but nothing has been signed yet.

“This year hasn’t gone to plan and didn’t start off the well. But you know, we still got 12 Grand Prix ahead of us, 24 races, so a lot more to do.

“I had a f***ing gruelling offseason, gruelling beginning of the season. I haven't put all this week in for nothing.

“We’ll just keep plugging away at it, and it will come.’’

Miller was also linked to the Pramac team which will run Yamahas from next year. Team owner Paolo Campinoti said the Aussie was on a short list along with Miguel Oliveira and Fabio di Giannantonio.

Any move to Ducati may be complicated by speculation that seven-time Formula 1 champion Lewis Hamilton was considering buying or investing in the Gresini team.

Hamilton, a long-time of MotoGP said: “Anything is possible. I am definitely interested in equity.’’

Hamilton joined the ownership of the Denver Broncos NFL franchise in 2022.

Miller meanwhile has a solid record at the Sachsenring circuit, finishing no worse than sixth in his past four visits. Last year he was third in the Saturday sprint.

Two Australians will be on the grid this weekend with World Superbike rider Remy Gardner deputising for the injured Alex Rins on the factory Yamaha.

“It’s great to have Remy back and on a good bike, it’s cool for him,’’ Miller said.
