Senna Agius, one of the most prominent Moto2 riders, will join the Tech3 KTM team for the 2027 MotoGP season, sharing the team with Luca Marini. This news was already expected, and hours after the new team director, Guenther Steiner, made his choice official, this signing has been confirmed.
Agius’s move to MotoGP is considered necessary, as Jack Miller is transferring to the Superbike World Championship and with the arrival of the legendary Adelaide Grand Prix next year, it was essential to have an Australian rider on the grid.
Agius has proven to be one of the brightest young stars in Moto2, with remarkable results that include several victories and podiums. Currently, at just 20 years old, he is fighting to secure a position among the top three in the 2026 championship.
After finishing second in the European Moto2 Championship in 2022, Agius clinched the title in 2023 before making the leap to the Moto2 World Championship in 2024, where he achieved a podium in his debut season.
It is clear that his progression has made him a very competitive rider, and now he will have the opportunity to realize his dream of competing in the top category of motorcycle racing.
Agius will form a dynamic team alongside Marini. Together, they will bring a combination of youth and experience at a crucial moment as Tech3 embarks on a new phase in its collaboration with KTM, marked by innovative regulations and machinery.
Agius has expressed his excitement for this new stage, commenting: ‘Today, a lifelong dream has come true: reaching MotoGP. I am very grateful to Guenther and the entire Tech3 team for believing in me and giving me this opportunity. I am ready to learn and work hard to become the best version of myself with this team.’
Guenther Steiner, for his part, added that they believe Agius has the qualities to take a very important step in MotoGP, highlighting his determination and attitude towards the hard work necessary for success. His signing represents an exciting opportunity in this new era of the championship.
