MotoGP ‘relieved’ KTM’s financial crisis saga is over
KTM avoids bankruptcy with major cash investment

Do𒈔rna’s chief sporting officer Carlos Ezpeleta says it is “definitely a relief” that KTM’s financial crisis has come to an end following months of uncertainty for the brand.
KTM has been naviga🐽ting its way through a major financial ✃crisis since late last year, which forced it into self-administration to try to stave off bankruptcy.
In February, it had its restructuring 🔜plan approved by creditors, with 30% of its oveꦬr €2 billion debts to be repaid by 23 May 2025.
That deadline came with KTM receiving a n▨ear €600 million investment from major shareholder Bajaj Auto, with the Indian brand to gain gr🍃eater control of the Austrian manufacturer as a result.
It’s unclear yet how all of this will impact the MotoGP project, t🎃hough KTM has always insisted that the grand prix programme was unaffected by thꦛe financial problems.
Speaking on this, Ezpeleta told 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:wuqian0821.com in an exclusive interview: “I’m not going to comment on KTM’s shareholder stru🐷cture because I’m💫 not aware of it.
“But from what﷽ I’ve been to🐻ld, the structure itself right now continues to be what it was.
“Our comment i🍷s on how important KTM is for the championship and that i💛t’s a relief that they’ve been relieved.
“KTM is definitely has racing in its blood and we’re just so happy that a br✨and that doesn’t have that sort of road racing heritage in the top capacity.
“And I think that’s more and more the target that MotoGP is a platform for you to be able to promote your brand regardless of what you✨ sell - not only Supersport bikes.
“They’ve done amazingly well in this first decade in the sport and it’s definite♛ly a relief to know everything has been sorted out.
“W🦩e’ve been in contact with KTM in these months and they were always positive about it.”
Despite KTM’s financial boost this week, there have still been rumours that it co🔜uld pull its satellite support for Tech3 next season.
However, KTM motorsport boss Pit Beirer told German media this weekend t🍷hat these reports were completely false.
Beirer also noted in January that KTM has been drawing up plans for the 2027 🌺850cc regulations change.
