Red Bull agrees to terms with Honda for MotoGP partnership in 2027

Summary

Red Bull has reportedly signed a deal to return to Honda for the 2027 and 2028 MotoGP seasons. The move comes after Red Bull previously switched to KTM following its association with Honda ending when Marc Marquez departed for Gresini Ducati. The change is said to be influenced by a strained relationship between Red Bull and Guenther Steiner, who is associated with the KTM satellite team Tech3. Additionally, Red Bull considered a reunion with Marquez before Honda secured a new lineup featuring Fabio Quartararo and reigning Moto2 champion Diogo Moreira. The MotoGP sponsorship is also shifting, with Monster set to sponsor Aprilia moving forward.
