Red Bull is set to partner once again with Honda HRC’s MotoGP works team. The partners have already unveiled ambitious plans to build on their combined total of 45 wins and over 90 podium finishes as part of a multi-year deal.
From the 2027 season onwards, Austrian energy drink manufacturer Red Bull will be one of the main partners of the Honda HRC Castrol MotoGP team. The multi-year agreement marks a resumption of the long-standing collaboration between the two companies across various areas of motorsport.
“Honda and Red Bull are two companies that know each other very well across many areas of motorsport, and I am delighted to resume our collaboration in MotoGP,” emphasised Koji Watanabe, President of Honda Racing Corporation. “With the imminent transition to a new era of the MotoGP World Championship featuring 850cc machines, it is crucial to have partners who share the same goals and ambitions. I have no doubt about what we can achieve together, and I am certain that our partnership will bring fans further unforgettable moments. Red Bull is a company that shares our goals, our ambition and our high standards, and I am confident that together we can build on the history we have already made both on and off the track.”
Under the new agreement, the Red Bull logo will feature prominently on next year’s 850cc MotoGP bikes of the factory team, in the team garage and on the leather suits of the riders – Fabio Quartararo and, in all likelihood, Diogo Moreira.
