Tech 3, the French motorcycle racing team, has partnered with bike supplier KTM as its official satellite partner, using KTM’s orange house colors for the 2022 season and switching to their GASGAS brand for 2023. They have also added Red Bull as their title partner for the first time since 2021. Red Bull’s branding is prominently featured on the KTM RC16s, with their blue, red, and yellow colors running down the bikes’ sides and front. The GASGAS logo is displayed on white decals above the Red Bull branding, and the manufacturer’s logo is on the front fairing and wheel guards. Pedro Acosta, the reigning Moto2 world champion, will race #31 with a white number, while Augusto Fernandez, the 2022 intermediate class champion, will race #37 with a red number. Fernandez had a strong debut season in MotoGP, finishing fourth in the French Grand Prix and ending the season in 17th place. Acosta aims to build upon a promising Valencia test and have a successful rookie premier class campaign after dominating in Moto2 last year.
