KTM is facing a turbulent MotoGP season in 2025, with uncertainty surrounding their participation in 2027. The factory squad riders are expressing dissatisfaction with the team’s performance.
Pedro Acosta is the top KTM rider in ninth place, while Brad Binder is in 14th, highlighting the team’s struggles. Acosta remains cautious despite past successes, aiming for consistent top-five finishes.
Acosta criticizes KTM’s poor qualifying showing, labeling it a “disaster.” Binder, on the other hand, sees potential in the team’s future engineering projects.
Both riders recognize the need for improvement in KTM’s performance, especially in cornering ability. The team’s focus is on development, suggesting a long-term approach to address current challenges.
With doubts lingering over KTM’s near-future prospects, the team faces the gamble of banking on the 2027 regulatory changes without guaranteed improvements.
