Red Bull is reportedly set to return to Honda in MotoGP, signing a sponsorship agreement for the 2027 and 2028 seasons. This move marks a departure from the brand's recent partnership with KTM.
Reports suggest that Red Bull's relationship with Guenther Steiner, the CEO of KTM satellite team Tech3, may have influenced the decision. Steiner is reportedly not held in high regard by Red Bull following his previous experiences with Red Bull Racing in Formula 1.
Honda is looking to revitalize its presence in the series following underwhelming performances from riders Joan Mir and Luca Marini. The manufacturer is expected to field a new lineup featuring talent such as Fabio Quartararo and Diogo Moreira to regain competitiveness and attract interest.
