KTM has parted ways with its MotoGP technical director Fabiano Sterlacchini after failing to agree terms on a contract extension
KTM and its MotoGP technical director, Fabiano Sterlacchini, have decided to part ways due to a failure to reach an agreement on a contract extension. Sterlacchini’s arrival in 2021 was seen as a significant move for KTM, as he was known for his work alongside Ducati’s tech guru Gigi Dall’Igna in transforming the Ducati Desmosedicis into MotoGP’s dominant force. This decision came as part of a restructuring within the team, which also saw changes in leadership positions. Despite efforts to renew Sterlacchini’s contract, they could not reach a mutual agreement. KTM is now focused on continuing their success in MotoGP and building upon the foundation that Sterlacchini helped establish.
