MotoGP, KTM and Tech3: an alliance under financial pressure

The destiny of KTM and its partner structure Tech3 is now inseparable, the two teams finding themselves on the front line facing a major financial crisis which threatens the future of the Austrian manufacturer in MotoGP. If 2025 still seems assured, 2026 could mark the end of the mark in the championship, unless a financial miracle occurs.

The destinies of KTM et Tech3
are inextricably linked in the face of the financial crisis which is hitting the Austrian manufacturer. If, until now, the restructuring process follows the survival plan of KTMTHE
creditorsthey aim to put an end to the MotoGP project. The Austrian brand could well say goodbye to competition in 2026.

In 2025, KTM actively seeking to
new investors to keep his Grand Prix dream alive. Racing teams must then not only keep their heads above water but also produce remarkable performances to attract the necessary funds. The 2025 RC16 promises to be a significant step forward according to preliminary testing, although rumors of a development freeze due to financial difficulties remain to be confirmed.

KTM and MotoGP: “ an uncertain but still open future »

Pedro Acosta has already shown that it can push the RC16 well beyond its supposed limits in its debut season, earning everyone's admiration. We expect this young prodigy, now a little more experienced, to continue to surprise. As for Brad Binderits consistency in 2024 is an asset on which KTM can rely on, even if he needs to step up his efforts this year to prove he can hold his own against an increasingly competitive team.

The MotoGP project of
KTM is in a critical zone, and the 2025 season will be decisive. With an improved Motorcycle and two talented riders, KTM could create a surprise and convince its investors to continue supporting the project.

However, if the results do not follow, 2026 could well mark the epilogue of a MotoGP adventure marked by ups and downs. Acosta, Binderand the whole team KTM are therefore playing much more than a championship: they are playing for the very future of their brand in Grand Prix.
