2023 important for KTM

As mentioned, no small goal for this half-renewed lineup. Brad Binder is in his fourth season in MotoGP and is the confirmation of the structure. He has been the most consistent so far for the Mattinghofen side, but it goes without saying that he is now being asked much more. Who knows where it can get Jack Miller, which has the possibility of writing a piece of history ahead of it. But first he’ll have to adapt to the RC16, then we’ll see… What’s certain is that KTM he will not be satisfied with what he has achieved until the end of 2022. Now it aims highwith the determination to give hard time to Ducati and Aprilia in the first place, as well as to the Japanese brands which instead struggle a little more. But what will they certainly do? see again in 2023. Where can KTM go? The challenge is launched.
