It’s official: there will be an orange presence in MotoGP until 2031. KTM CEO Gottfried Neumeister divulges why the company must be on the grid in the biggest and fastest motorcycle racing series in the world.

Flexibility, conditioning, concentration…and balls; just some of the traits needed by MotoGP riders for a 44-race, 22-Grand Prix, 10-month season of action and speeds reaching nearly 370kmph.

Dust, granite, mountains, and Mediterranean sea. the definitive Sardinia ADV loop. Sardinia is made for riders who want more than postcard asphalt. The island serves up an endless mix of fast gravel, rugged mountain backroads, and wild coastal scenery, often with surprisingly low traffic once you leave the main tourist corridors. That’s exactly why a Sardinia Offroad Loop works so well: it links the island’s interior massifs with dramatic coastlines, letting you chase grip one hour and turquoise horizons the next.
