Tech3 MotoGP team reveals 2024 livery as Acosta gears up for debut
The 2024 season will be Tech3’s sixth year in MotoGP as a KTM satellite team and second year under the GasGas name. Last year was challenging for Tech3 as Pol Espargaro dealt with an injury and rookie Augusto Fernandez struggled. The team achieved a best result of fourth place at the French Grand Prix but has not reached the podium in the past three seasons. This year, Fernandez will continue with the team while Espargaro has been replaced by reigning Moto2 champion Acosta. Tech3 recently unveiled their 2024 colors featuring more prominent Red Bull branding. Acosta had a successful first official test on the KTM MotoGP bike in Valencia and will have additional track time at the Sepang shakedown. Tech3 is the fifth team to have launched their 2024 season, with Yamaha set to reveal their colors next. Pre-season testing will take place in Malaysia and Qatar before the new season begins in March.
