KTM welcome Francesco Guidotti back into the MotoGP fold

2021 #motogp news

KTM Factory #racing are pleased to announce that #francescoguidotti will return to the company and will take the reigns of the Red Bull KTM Factory #racing squad as Team Manager.
The 49-year old Italian from Tuscany oversaw KTM’s Grand Prix entry in the old 125 and 250cc divisions for four years and then departed the world championship for a successful two-season stint in WorldSBK. For the last decade he has been in control of one of the leading satellite teams in #motogp before again deciding to lead the orange effort at the pinnacle of the sport.
 
Francesco Guidotti: “I was a team manager for KTM from 2006-2009 and then took some valuable experience in another series before coming back to #motogp. Now I am able to complete the circle! KTM have always been very ambitious and hungry with their #racing programs and we can see that #motogp is no different; it is incredible what they have achieved in such a short time and there is still much we can do. I’m very happy to be back and part of this big push for more success.”
 
Pit Beirer, KTM Motorsports Director: “It’s a pleasure to have Francesco back with us and someone who knows our culture and way to go #racing at KTM. We wanted to refreshen the #motogp management structure and we feel that his input and ideas will give us some new momentum for our sixth season on the grid. With #people like Francesco, Fabiano Sterlacchini, Hervé Poncharal, Jens Hainbach and Aki Ajo we know we have the best leadership to help us move ahead and make more #motogp milestones for the company.”
