This is the latest Red Bull KTM MotoGP livery, for Pedro Acosta and Brad Binder.
Pedro Acosta and Brad Binder will aim to showcase the latest Red Bull KTM Factory colors on their quest for a MotoGP podium victory, the first since 2022. The new livery was recently revealed during an online presentation in conjunction with the Tech3 team ahead of the Sepang tests. The team’s last MotoGP triumph was secured by Miguel Oliveira, while Brad Binder’s most recent victory dates back to mid-2021. KTM is counting on young sensation Pedro Acosta to claim his inaugural MotoGP win after finishing as runner-up six times in the previous season, ultimately achieving KTM’s best fourth-place finish in the rider standings. The vigorous performance of both Acosta and Binder will be crucial for KTM, especially in retaining the double world champion amidst speculation linking him to other teams for the upcoming 2027 850cc era. Despite KTM’s financial turmoil impacting their winter development, the signing of Maverick Vinales by Tech3 showcased the bike’s competitiveness, motivating Acosta to secure an impressive twelve rostrum finishes in the latter part of the season. With significant crew changes implemented for the 2026 season, KTM is hopeful for improved outcomes as they embark on their tenth MotoGP campaign under the Red Bull banner, marking a pivotal year for the team’s future in the premier-class racing circuit.
