The grid was cut down by two at the end of last year when Suzuki elected to quit MotoGP, citing financial reasons for its decision to withdraw one year into a new contract with the championship.
In recent weeks, there have been rumours about the possibility of KTM expanding its presence to six bikes for 2024 as it looks to find a place for its prodigal talent Pedro Acosta.
However, in an interview with the Tot Costa programme on Catalunya Radio, Ezpeleta confirmed there would be no extra team in 2024 and states Dorna would prefer to have the grid capped at 20 bikes.
“There are no plans to have more than 22 bikes next year,” Ezpeleta said.
“In fact, for us the ideal number is 20. From what I understand, we will have the pleasure of having Pedro in MotoGP.
“But then there are some conversations between Pedro and his team and his manufacturer [to be had].”
