Valentino Rossi’s VR46 MotoGP team has signed Indonesian oil brand Pertamina as its new title sponsor for the next three
The VR46 Ducati team has signed a deal with Pertamina Lubricants, starting from the 2024 season, and will be known as Pertamina Enduro V46 Racing Team. This partnership is considered crucial for the team to continue competing at the front of the MotoGP field in the future. The team’s director, Alessio Salucci, sees Pertamina’s support as a significant step forward towards achieving their goals. The previous title sponsor, Mooney, will step away after just one season, although it is unclear if they will remain involved with the team in a smaller capacity. Pertamina’s current sponsorship with Gresini’s MotoGP team and its naming deal with Moto2 outfit SAG will likely come to an end as a result of this new partnership.
